Glenfarne will lead and fund the project development, including the Arctic Carbon Capture plant on the North Slope, the LNG export facility in Nikiski, and the 807-mile (1,300-km) pipeline, which will transect the state.The pipeline will carry up to 3.3 billion cubic feet of gas per day from the state's petroleum-rich North Slope to Alaska communities and an export terminal south of Juneau.
The project, which was first approved under Donald Trump's administration, received Federal Energy Regulatory Commission authorization in 2020 and final legal approval in 2022, despite opposition from environmental groups.
