South Hook LNG

South Hook LNG is a large facility in the UK that imports liquefied natural gas (LNG) from abroad, primarily from countries like Qatar. The LNG is cooled to a liquid form for easier transportation by ships. Once it arrives at South Hook, the facility converts the LNG back into gas to supply homes, businesses, and industries. This process helps diversify the UK’s energy sources, ensuring a reliable supply of natural gas, especially during periods of high demand or when domestic production is low. It plays a key role in the UK's energy infrastructure and energy security.
