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
