The main energy resource is Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). Natural gas is the third most important source of energy in the world providing high energy content, high combustion efficiency and a clean flame. LNG is odourless, colourless, non-toxic and non-corrosive. From an environmental standpoint, it has great advantages over other fossil fuels. When combusted, LNG burns more cleanly and emits lower levels of carbon dioxide as compared to the emissions from naphtha, coal, oil and LPG. The combustion of LNG provides 20-30 % less carbon dioxide and 85 % less nitrogen oxide compared to petrol, diesel and heavy oil. LNG releases 95 % less particles compared to heavy oil.
