Small-scale LNG is the use of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in small quantities instead of large volumes. It is utilized in locations where large LNG ships or pipelines are neither required nor feasible. Small-scale LNG transportation involves transporting this liquid gas to towns, factories, or islands using smaller trucks, ships, or containers. It is mainly used in situations where constructing a large gas pipeline would be too costly or impractical. It is transported using a variety of supply methods, including micro terminals, trucks, ships, bunkering, and ISO containers. Small-scale LNG is utilized for many purposes, like power generation, industrial use, marine transportation, and fuel for heavy-duty vehicles.
