LNG volume vs. Natural Gas volume - Source: Cameron LNG

LNG is natural gas — predominantly methane (CH₄), with smaller fractions of ethane (C₂H₆), propane (C₃H₈) and other light hydrocarbons — that has been purified and cooled to approximately −161.4 °C (−258.5 °F) at near-atmospheric pressure, at which point it condenses into a cryogenic liquid. In this state, LNG occupies roughly 1/600^th the volume of natural gas at standard conditions, making non-pressurized storage and long-distance transport economically viable.​
