Gas Natural Licuado (GNL). El GNL es gas natural que ha sido sometido a un proceso de licuefacción, que consiste en llevarlo a una temperatura aproximada de -160 ºC con lo que se consigue reducir su volumen en 600 veces. Esto permite transportar una cantidad importante de gas en buques llamados metaneros. El GNL se halla en estado líquido mientras que el gas seco (que viaja por gasoducto) se encuentra en estado gaseoso. 3, record 1, Spanish, - gas%20natural%20licuado
