LNG OVERVIEW
LNG is natural gas that is liquefied, and is widely used in the energy sector. LNG has many benefits compared to petroleum, other gas or electricity-producing coal. CO2 emissions are significantly reduced by about 25%, and there are many other positive effects. NOX emissions are reduced by about 90%. There is no emission of sulfur, dust and particles. This is why we can safely say that the transition from any fossil fuel to natural gas will contribute to a better environment, locally and globally.
LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS (LNG)
LNG is natural gas cooled to about -162°C (-260°F), at this temperature the gas is in a liquid state. Cooling causes a volume reduction of 6000%, allowing the gas to be effectively transported and stored in vacuum-isolated tanks on trucks, containers and ships. Therefore, LNG is a more flexible and storage-friendly solution than piped gas or compressed natural gas (CNG).
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
Advantages of Chemical Properties
Facts about LNG – LNG is mostly composed of methane (CH4). During the combustion process, a methane molecule reacts with two water molecules and...
Low Risks LNG
LNG has a low burn rate. LNG requires a gas/air mixture of around 5-15% to be flammable. Lower mix…..
Non-Toxic LNG
LNG has no color or odor and is non-toxic. Natural gas leaks can still affect the amount of oxygen available while in…..
Effects In The Event Of A Leak
A natural gas or LNG leak will have minimal impact on plant and animal life, except for anything that comes into direct contact with the LNG/gas inside….
OPERATIONAL BENEFITS
LNG is a clean energy source with easy regulation. Requires minimal maintenance and the delivery process is fast and simple.

Company Business Chain
PGN LNG is a subsidiary of PGN which was established to carry out a special business in the LNG sector. We are tasked with developing LNG infrastructure throughout Indonesia and supporting PGN by ensuring the stability of gas supply (Security of Gas Supply).
We will be responsible for procuring LNG, transporting LNG to the LNG Terminal, building the LNG Terminal and distributing gas directly to customer facilities. We are ready to take a role along the LNG supply chain, starting from the construction of LNG Liquefaction Plant, FSRU, Small FSRU, Land Based LNG Terminal, Small Regas Terminal and LNG Bunkering Terminal with various modes of transportation using LNG Carrier and/or LNG Trucking.
COST EFFECTIVENESS
Using LNG as an energy source can have a positive cost impact compared to electricity and other fossil fuels.
Three Cost Benefits
There are three main advantages that make natural gas and LNG more cost effective than alternative energy sources. For our customers, low cost is the main reason to choose energy solutions from PT PGN LNG Indonesia. The three benefits are: Low investment, low energy prices, and lower taxes and fees.
Low Investment Costs
Converting to LNG is often not associated with significant investment costs. Depending on your existing equipment, you may need to replace the burner or adapt your existing burner. We will provide a solution for you on what to do in the shipping specifications.
Cheaper Energy Prices
We provide effective means of transportation and minimal storage costs resulting in low energy costs for our customers. The cost of LNG energy varies monthly and is typically lower than alternative energy from the grid or other oil, coal and gas.
Lower Fee Tax
Using LNG as your energy source provides major environmental benefits when compared to using oil and other fossil fuels. Compared to light fuel oil there is a reduction in CO2 emissions of around 25% and NOX of around 90%. There is no emission of dust or particles from the combustion process. This results in lower taxes, fees, and penalties from the government for emissions.
