Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) In The USA
Introduction
- There are currently 24 operational LNG import / export plants in the USA.
- Prior to the expansion of shale gas production, a large number of LNG import projects were launched, in anticipation of a natural gas shortage.
- As the scale of shale gas production became clear, most of the projects were cancelled.
- Many of those that were actually built, are now being converted into liquifaction facilities.
