Installation of 2,500 piles at Wilde Lake Compressor Station
Coastal GasLink couldn’t deliver clean Canadian natural gas to LNG Canada’s Kitimat liquefaction facility without the Wilde Lake Compressor Station, TC Energy’s largest natural gas compressor station built in a single phase, located 670 kilometres away, near the Dawson Creek area. Learn about this facility, its progress and the opportunities we’re bringing to local communities.
