What is LNG?

LNG is natural gas that has been cooled to a liquid state at about -162°C (-260°F). This process reduces its volume by around 600 times, making it easier and safer to store and transport.

Many of the world’s cities and industries that depend on natural gas for energy are located far from gas fields, making pipelines too impractical or costly to build. By cooling the gas to a liquid form, it can be transported more efficiently on ships as LNG.LNG is colourless, odourless, non-toxic and non-corrosive, making it a versatile and lower-carbon alternative to other fossil fuels. In its liquid state, LNG will not ignite.


When LNG reaches its destination, it is turned back into natural gas at regasification plants.

Uses of LNG?

Natural gas met around 23% of the world’s energy consumption in 2023, according to the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy.

LNG has a wide range of applications including:-

Industrial

LNG is used as a principal raw material in the manufacture of fertilisers, plastics and fabrics. It can also power manufacturing processes. There are many opportunities for industries to cut carbon emissions by switching from coal to natural gas and LNG.

Transport

LNG is increasingly being used as a fuel for heavy-duty vehicles and ships, helping to reduce emissions in the transportation sector.

Residential

LNG is used for heating water and buildings, as well as for cooking in homes.
