Prince Rupert Gas Transmission
This proposed project is a 900 kilometre natural gas pipeline running from Hudson’s Hope to Lelu Island, near Prince Rupert. The pipeline route would include both terrestrial and marine sections and would have a proposed capacity of 2-3.6 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/day).
All primary project permits required for this project have been issued; however, the proposed Pacific Northwest LNG facility project this pipeline was to supply, has since been cancelled.

Primary Project Permits
Permits for natural gas pipelines (and related compressors, meter stations, etc.) or LNG Facilities are required before construction can start on a major project. Applications go through a thorough permitting process, described in our Permitting Process page. Approvals, issued under the Oil and Gas Activities Act (OGAA), contain specific conditions and requirements that the proponent must meet in order to be in compliance with the permit.
