LNG Liquefied natural gas
Natural gas cooled to about minus 162 degrees Celsius so it becomes a liquid at a small fraction of its volume. It ships in cryogenic tanks and is turned back into gas at a receiving terminal.

- Key specifications
- Energy or volume basis and the terminal
01 / Understand the requirement
Tell us the specification
you need.
LNG requirements depend on the contract basis and what the receiving terminal can accept. Energy and volume are different measures and give different quantities for the same cargo. Tell us the measurement basis, destination terminal, delivery dates and whether you need a single cargo or term supply. We will assess the options and explain what needs confirmation.
Start with your specification
We do not publish a grade list for LNG. Tell us the standard or technical limits you need so we can check what can be sourced.
02 / Define the delivery
Delivery requirements.
These details help us assess supply options. Include what you know, and we can discuss the rest.
- Quantity and unit
- Destination port or country
- Delivery window
- Origin preferences, if any
- Preferred delivery basis
03 / Pricing basis
Pricing for your requirements
We do not publish a price list, and this page is not an offer. A price indication for LNG is based on the specification, quantity, destination, delivery dates and commercial terms in your enquiry.

Questions about
LNG.
Answers to common questions about sourcing LNG.
Should I give a volume or an energy quantity?
Use your usual measurement basis and include the unit. Converting between energy and volume requires the cargo composition, so we cannot convert without that information.
Why do you need the receiving terminal?
Terminals differ in the gas quality, vessel sizes and delivery slots they can accept. A cargo suitable for one terminal may not be suitable for another.
Should I specify spot or term supply?
Please specify which you need, or say if you are still deciding. Spot cargoes and term contracts have different sourcing and commercial arrangements.
Do I need exact delivery dates?
A date range is enough to start. Tell us your preferred delivery period and how flexible it is, and we will explain how that affects the options.
What quality requirements should I share?
Share the gas quality your terminal or end user accepts, such as the calorific value, Wobbe index and any component limits. LNG from different sources varies in composition, so the acceptable range affects the sourcing options.
