Vopak and AltaGas Ltd. are proud to announce continued progress on the Ridley Island Export Energy Facility (REEF), a transformative energy infrastructure project that will connect Canadian energy resources to global markets while driving economic prosperity across British Columbia and Canada.
The REEF project represents a cornerstone of both companies’ growth strategies, delivering essential infrastructure that will secure reliable energy supply for international markets. Located in Prince Rupert, the facility is strategically positioned to serve the world’s growing demand for affordable and reliable energy through Canada’s West Coast export capabilities.
Strategic Partnership for Global Energy Access
“At Vopak, we are proud to be part of the Ridley Island Export Energy Facility with our joint venture partner, AltaGas Ltd.,” said a Vopak representative. “This project is a key part of our growth strategy, driving essential infrastructure and securing reliable energy for the world. Together with our partners, we help the world flow forward.”
The collaboration between Vopak and AltaGas leverages the complementary strengths of both organisations to deliver world-class energy infrastructure. Vopak brings extensive global experience in energy storage and logistics, while AltaGas contributes deep Canadian market knowledge and proven project development capabilities.
AltaGas Ltd. emphasised the project’s significance within Canada’s energy landscape, stating: “We are building Canada’s most exciting export project: the Ridley Island Export Energy Facility (REEF). From Prince Rupert to the world, we are meeting the world’s growing demand and answering with affordable and reliable energy.”
REEF will serve as AltaGas’s third LPG export facility located on Canada’s West Coast, built in partnership with Vopak. This expansion demonstrates the companies’ commitment to developing Canada’s energy export capacity while meeting increasing global demand for clean-burning energy alternatives.
Once operational, the REEF project will function as a vital infrastructure hub, connecting global markets to Canadian energy resources. The facility’s strategic location in Prince Rupert provides optimal access to international shipping routes while supporting economic development throughout the region.
The project will drive significant economic prosperity for local communities, British Columbia, and Canada as a whole. REEF represents substantial investment in Canadian energy infrastructure, creating jobs and economic opportunities while establishing Canada as a reliable supplier of energy to global markets.
The Ridley Island Export Energy Facility addresses the world’s growing appetite for reliable, affordable energy supplies. By connecting Canadian energy resources to international markets, REEF will contribute to global energy security while supporting the transition to cleaner-burning energy alternatives.
The facility’s development aligns with both companies’ commitment to responsible energy infrastructure development that benefits local communities, national economic interests, and global energy security objectives.
