Advance Brief

This report provides a high-level overview of the social, environmental, and climate impacts of LNG infrastructure in southern BC, with a focus on Woodfibre LNG and Tilbury LNG export facilities and their associated LNG tanker traffic.

Additional LNG facilities in the region, including Mt. Hayes LNG, are considered in analyses due to their implications for bunkering LNG as a marine fuel for domestic use.

The purpose of the report is to demonstrate the planned increase in LNG tanker activity on BC’s coast, what it could mean for people and wildlife in the region, and why it is critical to ensure impacts of LNG export are properly assessed in Canada and globally.

Maritime Beyond Methane

Maritime Beyond Methane (MARBEM) is a global initiative accelerating the shipping industry’s transition beyond methane-based fuels (fossil, bio-, and e-LNG). We provide clarity on the policies, players, and emerging technologies shaping maritime decarbonization—equipping policymakers, financiers, and industry leaders with the data and practical pathways needed to advance a future-ready shipping industry.
