Introduction
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been cooled to around –162°C to convert it from a gaseous state into a liquid form. This liquefaction process reduces its volume by almost 600 times, making it easier and more economical to store and transport over long distances where pipelines are not feasible. LNG typically consists mainly of methane, with small amounts of other hydrocarbons. It is produced at specialized liquefaction plants and transported in insulated cryogenic tankers to regasification terminals, where it is converted back into gas for distribution through pipelines. Due to its high energy density, cleaner-burning properties, and ability to be shipped globally, LNG has become a critical component of the modern energy supply chain. It supports power generation, industrial heating, transportation fuel, and residential applications, helping countries diversify energy sources and enhance energy security.

Market Drivers and Outlook
The liquefied natural gas (LNG) market is being driven by a combination of rising energy demand, cleaner fuel preferences, and growing global energy diversification efforts. Many countries are shifting from coal and oil toward natural gas to reduce carbon emissions, creating strong demand for LNG as a cleaner-burning alternative. Rapid industrialization across Asia-Pacific—particularly in China, India, and Southeast Asia—is accelerating LNG consumption for power generation and industrial processes. Energy-importing nations are also investing in LNG infrastructure to strengthen energy security and reduce dependence on pipeline gas from unstable regions. Additionally, technological advancements in liquefaction, storage, and shipping have significantly lowered LNG production and transportation costs, making it more competitive globally. The expansion of floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) is increasing market accessibility, especially for emerging economies. Moreover, geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions are encouraging countries to diversify suppliers, further strengthening LNG trade flows. Growing interest in LNG as a marine and heavy-transport fuel, driven by stricter emissions regulations, is also contributing to long-term market growth.
