What's the difference between natural gas and liquefied natural gas?
assistant
The main difference between natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) is that natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture, while LNG is a highly compressed liquid form of natural gas. Natural gas is typically found in underground reservoirs and must be extracted and processed before it can be used as an energy source. LNG is cooled and condensed into a liquid state for easier transportation and storage.
