LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) Transport
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) transport involves converting natural gas into a liquid form by cooling it to -162 degrees Celsius. This process reduces its volume by about 600 times, making it easier and more cost-effective to transport over long distances, especially where pipelines are not feasible. LNG is loaded onto specially designed ships called LNG carriers, which keep it cold during transit. Upon reaching its destination, LNG is regasified and distributed for various uses, including electricity generation and heating. This method of transport helps meet energy needs globally while minimizing the environmental impact of natural gas.
