regasification terminals
A regasification terminal is a facility that converts liquefied natural gas (LNG) back into its gaseous form. This process is essential for distributing natural gas through pipelines to homes and businesses. The terminal receives LNG from ships, stores it in large tanks, and then uses heat to vaporize it.
These terminals play a crucial role in the global energy supply chain, allowing countries to import natural gas from various sources. By facilitating the transition from LNG to gas, regasification terminals help ensure a steady supply of energy for heating, electricity generation, and industrial use.
