HOUSTON, Nov. 2 -- Anadarko Petroleum Corp., Houston, has begun construction of a 1 bcfd LNG terminal at Bear Head, on Cape Breton Island, along the Strait of Canso in Nova Scotia. The terminal is slated for completion by late 2007.

Anadarko took on the project in August when it acquired Access Northeast Energy Inc., a private Halifax, NS, company with the LNG terminal as its sole project (OGJ Online, Aug. 13, 2004).

Anadarko produces oil in Algeria and Qatar, LNG exporters in which the company has said it hopes to expand gas exploration.
