A 345-tonne main cryogenic heat exchanger and two precooler units have arrived at LNG Canada’s site in Kitimat, as construction activities progress through the project’s “going vertical” stage.

The equipment was then placed on large transporters, which moved the pieces along the project site’s new three-kilometre-long haul road to the main construction area.
