In recent years, lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions studies of the natural gas industry have drawn attention to the significant environmental impact of liquefied natural gas (LNG). Not only is carbon dioxide (CO2) released when natural gas is burned at the end user, but the processes of extracting, treating, liquefying, shipping and regasifying the natural gas all contribute to the total emissions of using natural gas as fuel. With natural gas representing a rising fraction of the world’s total energy consumption, the importance of reducing these emissions will continue to grow in the future. Emissions from end users occur across many different geographic locations, from large-scale p
