By extension, LNG allows many countries that don\u2019t have enough of their own natural gas to access this energy source. This is because it can be shipped anywhere in the world in viable quantities, as it takes up 600 times less space than natural gas in its gaseous state.<\/p><p>However, it\u2019s not quite as straightforward as that \u2013 trading companies like Samsung C&amp;T need to constantly monitor the LNG logistics ecosystem if they are going to successfully move this commodity where it\u2019s needed.
