Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been cooled to a liquid state at approximately -160°C (-260°F). This process reduces the gas’s volume by about 600 times, making it more efficient to store and transport over long distances. LNG is primarily composed of methane (CH₄), but can also contain small amounts of other hydrocarbons.

It is stored at extremely low temperatures, which requires specialized cryogenic tanks and infrastructure, it also has much higher energy density compared to its gaseous form, making it more efficient for storage and transportation.

It is relatively safe to handle, as it is non-toxic and non-corrosive. However, its extremely low temperature can cause severe frostbite and material embrittlement.

LNG plays a crucial role in the global energy market by facilitating the transportation and utilization of natural gas across the world, enabling energy access and diversification
