TOKYO—Japan’s JGC Corp and U.S. firm Fluor have won orders to design and build the LNG Canada LNG project for an estimated $14 billion, Japanese business daily Nikkei reported on April 21, without citing sources.
Royal Dutch Shell, PetroChina, South Korea’s KOGAS and Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp are moving ahead on the long-stalled LNG project in Canada after a rise in energy prices, the report said.
JGC and Mitsubishi spokesmen in Tokyo declined to comment on the report.
LNG Canada is on track for a final investment decision later this year, an official for the province of British Columbia said last month.
