LNG Canada CEO Jason Klein said construction at their natural gas plant and export terminal in Kitimat is 85% complete.
The progress report was issued during its year-end update.
Klein added the project reached its peak construction cycle this past fall with over 8-thousand people employed at the Kitimat site.
LNG is now preparing for safe start-up activities to begin in 2024 where equipment is tested and fine-tuned.
The safe start up program is expected to take a year to complete where local communities and First Nations will be kept in the loop.
Klein stated the company is well-positioned to deliver the first cargoes of lower-carbon LNG by the middle of this decade.
