Start-up Year: 2014
Encana Corporation (Encana) and Ferus LNG first planed to build a 190,000 litre per day LNG production facility near Grande Prairie, northwestern part of the province of Alberta in Western Canada. The facility is strategically located in close proximity to high levels of energy industry activity in northwestern Alberta and northeastern British Columbia. It was among the first in Canada designed to produce high-quality LNG fuel specifically for high-horsepower (HHP) engines used in drilling rigs, pressure pumping services, and heavy-duty highway and off-road trucks. Other HHP applications for this LNG supply include rail, mining, and remote power generation. To support the entire LNG supply chain, Encana and Ferus LNG have also designed and are in the process of building specialised mobile storage and dispensing equipment. The facility began operations in 2014 and began producing 50,000 gallons per day of LNG and has the capacity to expand up to 250,000 gallons per day of LNG. In April 2014, Ferus Natural Gas Fuels, Inc. completed the purchase of Encana Corporation’s 50% interest in the Elmworth LNG project, making the company the owner with 100% interest.
