Small Scale
LNG Transport
A growing market for the future energy supply
is Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) transport.
Currently, natural gas provides 25% of all
energy consumption in the world, and the
International Energy Agency has forecast
that gas demand will grow at a faster rate
than oil in the coming years. LNG is natural
gas, which has been refrigerated to a cryogenic
liquid at a temperature of under -161°
Celsius.
Douglas-Westwood, an international energy
analyst, has stated that the growth of LNG
in the period 2005-2009 will increase by
¤ 45 billion. Expenditure on LNG facilities
will increase from ¤ 4.9 billion in 2004 to
¤ 11.9 billion in 2009.

60 people participated in the LNG
conference, where project results were

In order to meet the future market, Offshore
Center Danmark coordinated a team of companies
and institutions working on a market
