LNG
Enabling a cleaner energy future
As countries around the world look to address challenges regarding energy security and reducing emissions, Canadian natural gas is part of this solution. Canadian natural gas is abundant, affordable, responsibly produced and clean.
When cooled, liquefied natural gas (LNG), can be safely shipped via carrier to international markets including Asia and Europe. There LNG is helping meet energy demand and displacing more carbon-intense sources like coal. With global demand for LNG on the rise, ARC is well-positioned to participate in this opportunity and help supply the energy the world needs.
