Firstly, it is 50 to 70 percent cheaper than oil, giving it an economic advantage. Supply of LNG is stable, which helps to compensate for the intermittent supply of renewable energy available in the mix. Also, LNG emits fewer air pollutants compared to coal and oil when it is consumed. The increased supply of LNG and the development of better storage and regasification technology \u2013 in other words, its accessibility \u2013 is yet another advantage.<\/p><p>Taking all these benefits into consideration, it is hardly surprising that the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/reports\/gas-2020\/2021-2025-rebound-and-beyond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">International Energy Agency<\/a>\u00a0predicts that global LNG trade will increase 21 percent by 2025 compared to 2019 statistics.

An LNG terminal is a facility where imported LNG first arrives and it is where LNG is received, stored, and converted back into a gaseous form. To keep gas in a liquid state, these maintain extremely cold temperatures, different from ordinary storage containers.<\/p><p>For starters, Samsung C&amp;T E&amp;C Group constructed a terminal equipped to handle 4.5 million tons of LNG per annum consisting of three 180,000 cubic-meter LNG tanks on Singapore\u2019s Jurong island. This facility is the first LNG terminal in the city state. Having won the contract for Phase 1 and 2 in 2010, Samsung C&amp;T successfully competed for a subsequent contract for Phase 3 in 2014 based on a high level of client satisfaction. Upon its completion, Singapore acquired the ability to receive, storage, regasify, and re-export LNG.<\/p><p>In Malaysia, between 2014 and 2018, Samsung C&amp;T E&amp;C Group built two larger LNG tanks, each with a volume of 200,000 cubic meters, and LNG regasification facilities to process 5 million tons of LNG per annum in Pengerang, Johor state. This terminal, known as RGT-2, supplies LNG to a nearby petrochemical complex and power plant. In 2013, Samsung C&amp;T acquired Whessoe, a British engineering firm specialized in LNG storage tanks and regasification facilities. Whessoe was in charge of engineering the RGT-2\u2019s LNG storage tanks and worked closely with Samsung C&amp;T from the early stages of this project.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c83ed11 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c83ed11\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-e1676529425306.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzU5OTEsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMjFcLzAxXC9TaW5nYXBvcmUtTE5HLVRlcm1pbmFsLU1hbGF5c2lhLVJHVC0yLUxORy1UZXJtaW5hbC1lMTY3NjUyOTQyNTMwNi5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"470\" height=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-e1676529425306.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-35991\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-e1676529425306.jpg 470w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-e1676529425306-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Singapore LNG Terminal <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f99b87 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3f99b87\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-1-e1676529475771.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzU5OTMsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMjFcLzAxXC9TaW5nYXBvcmUtTE5HLVRlcm1pbmFsLU1hbGF5c2lhLVJHVC0yLUxORy1UZXJtaW5hbC0xLWUxNjc2NTI5NDc1NzcxLmpwZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"470\" height=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-1-e1676529475771.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-35993\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-1-e1676529475771.jpg 470w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/Singapore-LNG-Terminal-Malaysia-RGT-2-LNG-Terminal-1-e1676529475771-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Malaysia RGT-2 LNG Terminal<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e59ad67 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e59ad67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">LNG comes to Vietnam: The Thi Vai Terminal<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5647775 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5647775\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Based on the company\u2019s combined experience completing both terminals in Singapore and Malaysia without any safety incidents, Samsung C&amp;T E&amp;C Group won the contract to construct the Thi Vai LNG Terminal in Vietnam in June 2019.<\/p><p>Slated to be Vietnam\u2019s first such facility, it is scheduled to be completed in October 2022.
