This NCITE Webinar is intended to introduce its learners to the safe and reliable management of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Systems. LNG is the present transition fuel for the energy economy.  It has made it possible to trade large quantities of energy worldwide and is even used as the fuel with the highest energy density per weight for space travel. LNG eliminates the need for additional gas pipelines and is available when frigid climatic temperatures render natural gas pipeline supplies inadequate to keep our residential, commercial, and industrial customers warm and productive. It is an Eco-friendly, cost-effective, and readily available technology for addressing the most pressing energy needs of today. This presentation is intended to provide you with the insight on how to benefit from this source of energy storage. When all else fails on the coldest days, LNG is there to fill in the gaps. Further, because it is such a compact form of energy, it is ready today to be used as a substitute for natural gas, as a motor vehicle fuel, and to power everything from power plants to cruise ships. Because it is easy to transport as a liquid, a large part of the U.S. economy has been bolstered in the last 5 years and will continue to be bolstered as the U.S. becomes the major exporter of  Produced in America LNG. If you want to be on the cutting edge as this technology takes off, start with this Webinar as you also collect Professional Development Hours credited towards your Professional Continuing Education requirements as a Professional Engineer Learn from the best and be the best. Get on board now while this technology is becoming a dominant force in transforming the world's energy market and challenging established political strongholds. Natural gas is abundant, and this is the cost-effective method of transporting it from its point of production to where it is needed. No longer can countries threaten shutting in pipelines, as LNG can be delivered by tanker ships.
