Where does Singapore’s LNG come from?
Singapore receives natural gas via pipelines from neighboring Malaysia and Indonesia. It also imports liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Australia, the United States, Qatar, and Angola, among other countries.
What are LNG operations?
The LNG flows through pipes specially designed to withstand very low temperatures (-160°C). This operation takes at least 12 hours. A volume of boil-off gas is sent back from the terminal storage to the LNG tanker in order to maintain the pressure inside its cargo tanks.
What happens at LNG terminal?
Natural gas is transported in liquified state using LNG gas tankers. At LNG terminals, the liquified natural gas is turned back into gaseous state (regasified) after unloading from ships and then distributed across the network.
What is difference between LPG and LNG?
LPG is stored, shipped and transported in tanks or cylinders, whereas LNG is stored and shipped in purpose built cryogenic tanks. Pipelines are usually used to transport LNG.

How much LNG does Singapore import?
Natural Gas imports totalled 9.9 Mtoe in 2020, with the bulk comprising Piped Natural Gas (6.7 Mtoe). Amount of Natural Gas imports decreased by 2.4% in 2020, mainly due to lower amount of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) imported (i.e. 3.6 Mtoe and 3.2 Mtoe of LNG imported in 2019 and 2020 respectively).
How many LNG plants are there?
There are more than 110 LNG facilities operating in the U.S. performing a variety of services. Some facilities export natural gas from the U.S., some provide natural gas supply to the interstate pipeline system or local distribution companies, while others are used to store natural gas for periods of peak demand.
