LNG is the fastest-growing segment of the global oil & gas industry. It has recently moved from niche topic to being front-page news. Like all large energy sources, Liquefied Natural Gas is not without controversy. But no one can deny the impact of LNG on energy security, affordability and sustainability, whether assessed as good or bad.

This course provides you with the broad introduction needed to build solid foundational knowledge on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). It provides you with a big-picture overview, whether your background is in Business, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Petroleum Engineering or other disciplines.

It delivers insights into four critical questions:

What is LNG, and what are the key components of the LNG value chain?
How does an LNG plant work, and what are the key choices regarding technology, construction, and contracting strategy for a new project?
What defines LNG market dynamics – who are the main suppliers and customers, and how is LNG priced and traded?
What drives LNG economics, and how are key risks managed?

With the knowledge gained from this course, you will be well positioned to make better sense of LNG developments and to move into more advanced topics.

Thus whether you work in industry or academia, whether you are an investor or a journalist, or a graduate about to enter the job market – if you are looking for a broad yet efficient introduction into Liquefied Natural Gas, this course is for you.

The course will be periodically updated to add and improve content. Key updates include:
