What is Liquefed Natural Gas?

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is primarily methane condensed into liquid form by cooling it below its dew point to -161oC (-260oF) at atmospheric pressure.

LNG is less than half the weight of water

When natural gas is condensed into liquid form, its volume is reduced by 600 times, which makes it more cost efficient to transport over long distances.

With advancements in power generation technology, it is much more effcient to use natural gas, rather than oil or coal, to generate electricity.

Burning natual gas produces lower levels of carbon emissions as compared to other fossil fuels, such as oil and coal.

Natual gas can be used to produce heat and electricity simultaneously via cogeneration systems.

According to estimates, the world’s natural gas reserves can last longer than oil reserves
