Liquefied Natural Gas Market
The global liquefied natural gas (LNG) market has been witnessing significant growth over the past few years driven by factors such as the rising demand for cleaner energy. LNG is a natural gas (predominantly methane, CH4) that has been cooled down to the liquid form for ease of storage or transport. The standard temperature at which it is liquefied is approximately -162°C. LNG takes up about 1/600th the volume of natural gas in the gaseous state. This reduction in volume enables economical transport of natural gas to locations otherwise not accessible via pipelines. It is odorless, colorless, non-toxic and non-corrosive. LNG is transported between in mega tankers to locations where regasification terminals can convert it back into the gaseous state for distribution through pipeline networks. With rising demand for cross-border supply of natural gas, LNG trade has increased facilitating natural gas trade globally.
Market Dynamics:
The global LNG market is driven by factors such as rising demand for cleaner energy, growth in global LNG trade, increasing investments in LNG infrastructure, and economic advantages of LNG over other fuels. However, volatility in LNG prices based on fluctuations in global gas prices remains a key restraint. Opportunities include increasing adoption in the transportation sector like LNG-fueled vehicles and rising off-grid consumption. Innovation in small-scale liquefaction and regasification technologies also presents new avenues for market expansion.
