This graph represents the process of taking liquefied natural gas (LNG) off of the ship, moving it into cold storage tanks and then regasifying it back into natural gas to send to market.

The gray lines represent natural gas, and the yellow lines represent LNG. Naturally, there is a small amount of LNG which vaporizes through contact with warmer air in the top of the ship containers and in the LNG storage tanks. This natural gas is siphoned out of the tanks and moved into the pipeline.
