Woodfibre LNG, a natural gas liquefaction and export project being developed near Squamish, has officially established its headquarters in Vancouver.
The project is a small-scale liquefied natural gas processing and export facility and is operated by newly formed Woodfibre Natural Gas Ltd. and Singapore-based Pacific Oil and Gas Ltd.
"Our expanded international trade and investment network and trade missions allow us to get in front of investors and promote British Columbia as an attractive destination for investment and for Asian companies looking to locate head offices for their North American operations," said Teresa Wat, Minister of International Trade and Minister responsible for the Asia Pacific Strategy and Multiculturalism.
Byng Giraud, vice-president of corporate affairs for Woodfibre LNG, said, "Having our head office in Vancouver and eventually setting up another office in Squamish will allow us to work closely with prospective partners, service providers, the community and First Nations while also being ideally situated to connect with investment partners in Asia and around the world."
Pacific Oil and Gas is also a partner in the Rudong LNG facility in Jiangsu, China.
