FortisBC has achieved tunnel breakthrough on the Eagle Mountain – Woodfibre Gas Pipeline (EGP) Project, connecting two separately excavated sections to create a continuous, nine-kilometre underground tunnel between Squamish and the Woodfibre LNG site.

In partnership with the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) and West Coast Kelp we are helping advance marine habitat research near the Woodfibre LNG site while creating valuable hands-on learning opportunities for the next generation of restoration professionals.

During the interview, Luke and Amanda explored how Woodfibre LNG’s commitment to net-zero emissions provides a significant competitive advantage in a global market increasingly focused on the price of carbon.

Woodfibre LNG CEO Luke Schauerte recently joined host Karen Restoule — Director of Indigenous Affairs & Senior Fellow at the McDonald Laurier Institute — on the Breakthrough Nation podcast. The conversation covered project progress, environmental stewardship, Indigenous partnership, and Canada's role in a changing global energy landscape.

Woodfibre LNG is now more than 65 per cent complete and remains on track for completion in late 2027. The tour highlighted the safe delivery of all 16 major modules to site, ongoing work to complete the project's final marine infrastructure and pilings, and the scale of activity currently underway throughout the facility.

Woodfibre LNG has initiated targeted in-water works at the project site in accordance with authorizations issued by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and under the Squamish Nation Environmental Assessment Agreement (SNEAA).

From the skilled tradespeople and marine crews working on site each day, to Indigenous partners, contractors, suppliers, engineers, local businesses, and community members — thousands of people are helping move this project forward together.

Leaders from Squamish Nation and Woodfibre LNG, in a panel moderated by Natural Resources Canada, discussed how their partnership is advancing a model for Indigenous-led environmental regulation in practice.

For a third year running, the same nest has been occupied on the shores of Átl'ḵa7tsem (Howe Sound), a quiet but meaningful sign that the wildlife along this stretch of coast continues to thrive alongside our construction activity.

Woodfibre LNG is a project defined by a series of industry firsts. Not only is it a modular LNG terminal designed to deliver fully electrified, net zero liquefaction at commercial scale, but it is also the first major industrial development in Canada to have a non-treaty First Nation serve as an environmental regulator.

Just a week after receiving its liquefaction module, Woodfibre LNG has reached 65% completion with the arrival of its powerhouse module at site — the 16th module delivered for the project to date.

Weighing 10,847 metric tonnes, the liquefaction module is the heaviest module to become part of the future Woodfibre LNG facility. Occupying a footprint roughly the size of a football field, it is also among the largest.
