[Online Quarterly Update] Liquefied Natural Gas Market has witnessed a considerable growth as it reached 390 million tonnes in 2020 and is projected to achieve a CAGR of 5.00% in the next ten years until 2030. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a cooled-down liquid form of natural gas. LNG is approximately -162ºC in temp. and widely used for the storage and transportation purposes. It is usually odorless, colorless, non-corrosive, and non-toxic in nature. The liquefaction process of natural gas involves the removal of certain components including helium, dust, hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide, benzene, water, heavy hydrocarbons, and other components that can freeze under the low temperatures, which is then condensed into liquid form by cooling it to −260° Fahrenheit. Developments made in the production processes, cryogenic storage are opening new opportunities for commercializing natural gas into the market across the globe. Liquefied Natural Gas find its applications in heating homes,electric power plants, manufacturing of chemicals and fertilizers, and fuel trucks, cruise ships, cargo vessels, and others. The emergence of large-scale cryogenic storage made it possible to create long-term gas storage reserves. These reserves of Liquefied Gas are the main means for networks to handle local peak requirements. LNG is primarily used to store and transport natural gas from the source to a destination. LNG is likely to become a mainstream fuel for transportation needs. It is currently being evaluated for over-the-road trucking, off-road, marine, and train applications. Based on the application, the Liquefied Natural Gas market is segmented into transportation fuel, power generation, and others. The transportation fuel segment dominates the LNG market owing to the increasing usage of LNG as a fuel in vehicles, especially in the Asia Pacific region. As China is the major consumer of LNG, therefore there is high demand for LNG in the Asia Pacific region. Rising demand for LNG for power generation purposes as it is piped into homes, businesses, and industries where it is burnt for heat or to generate electricity, is expected the augment the market of LNG around the world in upcoming years. A number of power generation projects, especially in emerging countries like China, India, and others, are expected to fuel the demand for LNG in the forecast years.
The Liquefied Natural Gas market was negatively affected globally due to the outbreak of COVID-19. Leading authorities in different countries imposed countrywide lockdowns and strict regulations, which led to the decline in demand and sales of Liquefied Natural Gas during the first of 2020. Power generation facilities were severely affected due to the coronavirus pandemic. There was a halt in the transportation services which resulted in zero shipment of natural gases during the lockdown. As soon as the operation resumes, the demand for LNG in end-use industries is likely to boost the global market in the future.
Among different regions, the Asia Pacific region holds the major share in the Liquefied Natural Gas market across the globe due to the continuously increasing investments in LNG infrastructure development and rising awareness about the benefits of eco-friendly products across various end-use industries. The demand for LNG is likely to boost in India due to the increasing consumption of gas-based facilities along with the robust growth of the economy, which will fuel the LNG market in the Asia Pacific region. Demand of LNG is rapidly increasing in Europe, as Russia is becoming a dominating player in transporting fuel to remote locations.
