Reducing fuelling costs with LNG

When compared to other marine fuels, LNG can reduce emissions¹ and your fuel costs. We have multiple cost-saving advantages that allow us to competitively price our LNG.

Save money with FortisBC LNG for marine vessels

How using LNG from FortisBC can save you money:

• Compared to ships travelling to Asia from the U.S. Gulf Coast, ships receiving LNG from our Tilbury LNG facility have a much shorter and more direct route to Asia.
• Ships going from B.C. to Asia don’t need to go through the Panama Canal, avoiding the Panama tolls.
• Our colder climate allows for more efficient gas liquefaction.
• We have a reliable pipeline system linking our facilities to Canada’s abundant, low-cost gas reserves.²
