Southeast Asia LNG Industry Segmentation

LNG is natural gas that has been cooled to a liquid state, at about -260° F, for storage and shipping. The volume of natural gas in its liquid form is about 600 times smaller than in its gaseous state. This process makes it possible to transport natural gas to places pipelines do not reach. The LNG market is segmented by LNG infrastructure and LNG trade. By LNG infrastructure, the market is segmented into LNG liquefaction plants, LNG regasification facilities, and LNG shipping. The report also covers the market size and forecasts for the LNG market across major regions. for each segment, the market sizing and forecasts have been done based on revenue (USD million).
