Background

AC LNG plans to develop an LNG liquefaction project comprising a floating and onshore natural gas liquefaction plant. The Project will be located at Byers Cove, in Middle Melford, Nova Scotia. Commercial Operation date of the project is Q1 2023. AC LNG has secured an option agreement with the Province of Nova Scotia for approximately 370 acres of land at Byers Cove in the Melford Industrial Reserve, located in eastern Nova Scotia, Canada, on the Strait of Canso and near the Maritime and Northeast Pipeline. AC LNG is evaluating the prospect of sourcing feed gas supply from the United States, Western and Eastern Canada. The gas will be transported to the proposed project via a Canadian transportation route or a U.S. transportation route.
