The volume of natural gas in its liquid state is about 600 times smaller than its volume in its gaseous state. This process, which was developed in the 19th century, makes it possible to transport natural gas to places pipelines do not reach and to use natural gas as a transportation fuel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">For large-volume ocean transport, LNG is loaded onto double-hulled ships, which are used for both safety and insulating purposes. Once the ship arrives at the receiving port, LNG is off-loaded into well-insulated storage tanks, and later regasified for entrance into a pipeline distribution network.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">LNG can also be shipped in smaller quantities, usually over shorter ocean distances. There is a growing trade in small-scale LNG shipments, which are most commonly made using the same containers used on trucks and in international trade, specially outfitted with cryogenic tanks. Other small-scale LNG activities include \u201cpeak-shaver\u201d liquefaction and storage facilities, which can hold gas compactly for when it is needed in local markets in the U.S. during times of peak demand. \u00a0LNG is also sometimes imported or exported by truck from this kind of facility.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-316918f elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"316918f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Request A Quote<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-62589a1b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"62589a1b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-756456f4\" data-id=\"756456f4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-589a7d69 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"589a7d69\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\"><strong class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-3a c1-3b c1-b c1-9v c1-1k c1-1e c1-9w\">LNG increases markets for natural gas<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Where natural gas pipelines are not feasible or do not exist, liquefying natural gas is a way to move natural gas from producing regions to markets, such as to and from the United States and countries in Asia or Europe. LNG is shipped in special ocean-going ships (tankers) between export terminals, where natural gas is liquefied, and import terminals, where LNG is returned to its gaseous state (regasified). At an import terminal, it can be injected into pipelines for transmission to distribution companies, industrial consumers, and power plants.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Most LNG is transported by large ships\/tankers called\u00a0<em class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-3a c1-3b c1-b c1-9v c1-1k c1-3j c1-9w c1-9x\">LNG carriers<\/em>that are equipped with onboard, super-cooled cryogenic tanks. LNG is also transported in relatively small volumes on ships using International Organization for Standardization (ISO)-compliant containers and on trucks.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">LNG can be used as a fuel for ships, trucks, and buses with specially designed fuel tanks. Some power plants store LNG and use it to generate electricity when electricity demand is high and their natural gas demand exceeds pipeline delivery capacity.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\"><strong class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-3a c1-3b c1-b c1-9v c1-1k c1-1e c1-9w\">The United States imports and exports LNG<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">In recent years, the United States has become a net exporter of LNG, largely because of increasing U.S. natural gas production, declining imports of LNG, and expansion of LNG export terminal capacity.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">The United States imported very small amounts of LNG until 1995, and then LNG imports generally increased each year until peaking in 2007 at about 771 billion cubic feet (Bcf). Increases in U.S. natural gas production and expansion of natural gas pipelines have reduced the need to import natural gas. LNG imports declined in most years since 2007.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">In 2017, the United States imported about 78 Bcf of LNG\u2014the lowest amount since 1997\u2014from three countries:<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Trinidad and Tobago\u201370 Bcf<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Nigeria\u20136 Bcf<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Canada\u20132 Bcf<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Most of U.S. LNG imports are into the Everett regasification terminal near Boston, Massachusetts. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Rhode Island may have significant pipeline constraints when heating demand increases substantially during periods of very cold weather. LNG imports help to meet natural gas demand in New England because the region currently has limited pipeline interconnections with the Northeast and U.S. producing regions.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">In 2017, the U.S. exported about 708 Bcf of LNG to 28 countries, more than in any previous year.

Less than 1 Bcf was exported to Barbados and the Bahamas on small tankers equipped with ISO containers. Less than 1 Bcf of LNG was exported by truck to Canada and Mexico.<\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"x-el x-el-span c1-86 c1-87 c1-b c1-c c1-d c1-e c1-f c1-g\">Sometimes the U.S. re-exports natural gas that it originally imported when natural gas prices are favorable to do so.
