Indian-born entrepreneur Krishnan Suthanthiran plans to build pipelines from Alberta to Kitsault, BC, to export natural gas and oil as butanol.
Indian-born U.S. entrepreneur Krishnan Suthanthiran is reviving his plan to turn Kitsault, a former mining town in British Columbia, into an energy export hub.
In 2026, he proposes building two pipelines from Alberta to transport natural gas and crude oil to Kitsault, where they would be exported as liquid butanol.
The project, promoted to Alberta officials, leverages the town’s existing infrastructure and remote Pacific location.
Though past ventures like an eco-resort and LNG terminal failed, Suthanthiran believes current global trade shifts make the plan viable.
The town, abandoned since the 1980s, remains maintained at an annual cost of $2 million.
