B.C.'s Ksi Lisims LNG Inks 20-Year Supply Deal with German Utility Uniper
The deal covers 2 million tonnes a year for up to 20 years and would make Ksi Lisims Germany’s first major long-term LNG supplier in Canada.
- On Wednesday, July 29, German utility Uniper signed a 20-year agreement to purchase two million tonnes of LNG annually from the Ksi Lisims project, with first deliveries expected in 2032 from the British Columbia facility.
- Government officials from Canada and Germany emphasized the agreement strengthens national resilience by diversifying trade partnerships, marking the first major long-term LNG supply agreement between the two nations.
- Western LNG CEO Davis Thames said the agreement starts an "important long-term relationship" with a European utility, while Nisga'a Nation President Eva Clayton noted the deal reflects the "Common Bowl" philosophy of sharing abundance.
- Located on Pearse Island, the $10-billion Ksi Lisims project would be supplied by the 750-kilometre Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline, which faces legal challenges in the B.C. Supreme Court despite government permits.
- Project backers seek commitments for 80 to 90 per cent of capacity for a final investment decision, as previous deals with Shell, Total, and SEFE bring total contracted capacity to 7 million tonnes of the projected 12 million tonne capacity.
