LNG is natural gas that has been liquefied by reducing its temperature to -260 degrees Fahrenheit at atmospheric pressure. In volume at standard conditions, it occupies 1/600 that of natural gas as a vapor.

A. LNG is a natural gas that has been cooled for shipment and/or storage as a liquid. Natural gas in liquid form is more compact than in its traditional gaseous form so it is easier to transport from regions like Australia, Indonesia, South America, Africa, the Middle East and other areas where natural gas is plentiful. Once the LNG reaches its destination, it is returned to its gaseous state before it is put into the utility system for use in homes and businesses.
