Well yeah, obviously it's a lot easier when your pipelines and many of your producers are already right near the coast. There's a reason why none of the planned West Coast LNG export terminals in the US (that would have needed pipelines that were 4-500 km long to supply them) ever got off the ground despite years of attempts and the fact that they'd be useful for supplying Asia.
Anyway, be thankful we don't live in the UK. With their new utility price caps, they'll be able to charge up to about $60 CAD per GJ for gas.
