n: (LNG) a liquid composed chiefly of natural gas (i.e., mostly methane). Natural gas is liquefied to make it easy to transport if a pipeline is not feasible (as across a body of water). Not as easily liquefied as LPG, LNG must be put under low temperature and high pressure or under extremely low (cryogenic) temperature and close to atmospheric pressure to liquefy. liquefied natural gas carrier (LNGC) n: a vessel such as a ship used to transport liquefied natural gas.

methane that has been compressed and cooled to the liquefaction point for shipping.
