Description

Liquefied natural gas is natural gas, primarily composed of methane, which has been converted to liquid form for ease of storage and transport. LNG takes up about 1/**0th the volume of natural gas. ... Liquefaction describes the process of cooling natural gas to approximately ***2°C ( ***9°F ) until it forms as a liquid.

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been converted to a liquid form for the ease and safety of natural gas transport.

LNG occupies about 1/**0th the volume of natural gas. Liquefaction allows natural gas to be transported economically by ship to overseas markets. Upon reaching its destination, LNG is converted back to a gaseous state for use as an energy source. LNG is also used directly as a transportation fuel for ships and cars
