UPDATE 1-Shell signs 20-yr LNG deal with Ksi Lisims LNG in Canada

Shell has entered into a deal to buy two million tonnes of liquefied natural gas per year from Ksi Lisims LNG, partners in the Canadian project said on Monday, as the energy giant looks to strengthen its LNG portfolio in Canada. Under the deal, volumes will be supplied from the floating facility in British Columbia and will serve mainly customers in Asia, the partners said. British Columbia's Pacific coast is close to Canada's vast Montney shale field and Asian markets, which is a top importer of the commodity.
