CBI's 2nd Annual Advances in Liquefied Natural Gas.Business/Energy Editors WOBURN, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 11, 2003 The Real Potential to Serve North America - Develop Import Terminals and Downstream Markets, Meet Regulatory Requirements and Successfully Finance Projects The Center for Business Intelligence announces its 2nd Annual Advances in Liquefied Natural Gas liquefied natural gas: see under natural gas. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) A product of natural gas which consists primarily of methane. Its properties are those of liquid methane, slightly modified by minor constituents. conference, April 14-15, 2003, in Houston, TX. There is increasing interest in LNG LNG (liquefied natural gas): see under natural gas. for North American markets for several reasons: Demand for natural gas is increasing, especially for gas-fired power plants. On-shore U.S., Western Canada and off-shore Gulf of Mexico Noun 1. Gulf of Mexico - an arm of the Atlantic to the south of the United States and to the east of Mexico Golfo de Mexico Atlantic, Atlantic Ocean - the 2nd largest ocean; separates North and South America on the west from Europe and Africa on the east production is diminishing, and a shortage of natural gas supply for North America is predicted in the near future. Decreasing cost of LNG supply, liquefaction liquefaction, change of a substance from the solid or the gaseous state to the liquid state. Since the different states of matter correspond to different amounts of energy of the molecules making up the substance, energy in the form of heat must either be supplied to , re-gasification and shipping - all make LNG more viable.
