Pieridae Energy Ltd. could be looking to sell its abandoned Goldboro LNG project in Nova Scotia to an Irish energy firm, according to a recently published regulatory filing.

Calgary-based Pieridae asked Nova Scotia’s utility and review board for permission to transfer its approvals for the potentially 1.3 Bcf/d export project to Simply Blue Group, a renewable energy and sustainable fuel developer.

Pieridae told regulators it had agreed to a preliminary purchase agreement with a new Canadian unit of Simply Blue in February it expects to close “shortly following receipt of the requested consent.”
