LNG
✅LNG stands for liquefied natural gas.
✅ It’s natural gas that has been cooled down to about -260°F (-162°C) to turn it into a liquid form.
✅ This process reduces its volume by approximately 600 times, making it easier and more economical to transport and store, especially over long distances where pipelines aren’t practical.
✅LNG is primarily composed of methane (CH4), but it can contain small amounts of other hydrocarbons.
✅ Once it reaches its destination, LNG is regasified and used just like conventional natural gas for heating, electricity generation, and as a fuel for vehicles.
