Malaysia’s Petronas adds new vessels to its fleet as LNG Canada launch nears KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian state energy firm Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) on Monday said it would add three energy-efficient liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels to its North American operations. The addition of the vessels, which brings the total number in Petronas' fleet in North America to six, comes ahead of the start-up of LNG Canada's gas-export facility due later this year, the company said in a statement. Petronas has a 25% stake in the LNG Canada plant in Kitimat, British Columbia, on the west coast of Canada. "With the arrival of these new vessels, Petronas reinforces its commitment to deliver this much needed fuel of choice to its customers in a cost-efficient and reliable manner," it said. The vessels were built at the Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) shipyard in Ulsan, South Korea. Each has a cargo capacity of 174,000 cubic meters and are the largest ships in Petronas' fleet. #LNGCanadacommissioning Earlier this year, Shell’s CEO, Wael Sawan, said that the LNG Canada terminal is more than 90 percent complete and the project is preparing to launch commissioning activities later this year. This is the first large LNG export terminal in Canada. Contractor JGC Fluor is constructing the first phase of the giant LNG Canada project that includes two liquefaction trains with a capacity of 14 mtpa in Kitimat, while the project partners are also considering a second phase. Last year, TC Energy’s Coastal GasLink pipeline, which will supply natural gas to the LNG Canada terminal, was mechanically completed. Besides operator Shell and Petronas, other partners in the project include PetroChina, Japan’s Mitsubishi Corporation, and South Korea’s Kogas. LNG Canada said in the December 2023 update that that it expects start-up activities to last more than a year.
