Following the announcement that land clearing had begun for the Ridley Island Energy Export Facility (REEF), joint partner AltaGas says it is looking to become an industrial stronghold on the North Coast.

The proposed liquid petroleum gas (LPG) project at the Prince Rupert port has been in the works for some time. Initiated by Royal Vopak, then joined by AltaGas in April this year, a final investment decision is expected in the summer of 2024.
