Bechtel awarded LNG contract in Canada

Pieridae Energy has announced that it has signed a services agreement with Bechtel related to its Pieridae’s 2-Train Goldboro LNG Facility in Eastern Canada.

Bechtel will conduct a detailed review of the scope and design of the Goldboro LNG Facility and developing a comprehensive engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) execution plan by March 31, 2021,

“This is a very positive step forward for our Goldboro LNG Project. Goldboro LNG is a shovel-worthy and shovel-ready project that will create thousands of jobs and help put Canadians back to work in a COVID-impacted environment; provide real, enduring and tangible economic benefits for First Nations; help lower global emissions by supplying LNG overseas to replace coal; and increase Europe’s choices in sourcing natural gas,” said Pieridae CEO Alfred Sorensen

“We are honored to partner with Pieridae to deliver a cleaner energy future,” said Bechtel’s Oil, Gas and Chemicals President Paul Marsden. “We bring a long history of successfully delivering projects in Canada and partnering with our global customers to expand access to this energy source. Together with Pieridae, we look forward to successfully bringing this project and its economic benefits to the Goldboro region.”
