Yokohama, Japan - JGC Holdings Corporation is pleased to announce today that JGC Corporation (JGC) and Fluor Corporation (Fluor) have been awarded the contract to update the Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) for a proposed Phase 2 expansion of the facility in the traditional territory of the Haisla Nation in Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada by LNG Canada.

Located on Canada's west coast, the LNG Canada facility benefits from access to abundant, low-cost natural gas and an ice-free harbor. The plant is the first-of-its-kind in Canada with an annual production capacity of approximately 14 million tonnes of LNG. It positions Canada as a major supplier of low-carbon natural gas to global markets and will operate under a 40-year license helping to reduce global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by replacing coal with natural gas. The proposed Phase 2 expansion will double the LNG production capacity.

JGC Fluor Joint Venture is executing EPC work on the LNG Canada Project and first export cargo was achieved in June 2025. This award of a FEED update contract is as a result of the recognition of project execution capabilities demonstrated on the LNG Canada Project and proven track record of successfully delivering numerous large-scale LNG projects.

LNG Canada is a joint venture between Shell, Petronas, PetroChina, Mitsubishi Corporation and KOGAS. JGC Fluor Joint Venture's involvement in the LNG Canada Project continues through commissioning support and long-term operational readiness services.

Masayuki Sato, Representative Director, Chairman, President & CEO of JGC Holdings Corporaion, commented:
"We are pleased to have been engaged by LNG Canada for this FEED update contract, which builds upon our previous work on the LNG Canada Project. This contract award represents one of the most significant milestones in the ambitious expansion project we have been pursuing for a long time. We will make every possible effort to incorporate the lessons learned from the LNG Canada Project to ensure the success of this strategic expansion."

In addition to the LNG Canada Project, as a leading global contractor contributing to energy transition, JGC is delivering strategic LNG projects, including Ruwais LNG project in United Arab Emirates, the Nearshore Floating LNG Plant in Malaysia and the front end engineering design (FEED) for the Rovuma LNG project in Mozambique. JGC further wishes to contribute to the realization of planned energy transition projects to achieve its purpose of "Enhancing Planetary Health".
