May 21 (LNGJ) - Gazoduq, the company planning to transport feed-gas on a 780-kilometres pipeline from Western Canada to the proposed GNL Québec project at Saguenay 200 miles north of Quebec City on a tributary leading to the St Lawrence River, has announced the return of Louis Bergeron as Gazoduq President.

   “With over 40 years of experience in the energy sector in several countries and leading complex projects, Mr Bergeron joined Gazoduq in August 2018 as President to lead the carbon-neutral natural gas pipeline project from northeast Ontario and the Saguenay - Lac-Saint-Jean region,” said Gazoduq. “In November 2020, during the height of the pandemic, Louis Bergeron made the decision to transition to a strategic consulting role and has since been involved in special projects. Now, his role as Gazoduq’s President will be all the more critical as the pandemic restrictions are expected to be lessened and the project will likely be able to re-intensify its activities,” added the company.
