First U.S built LNG tanker launched in New Orleans
The first of six U S built tankers to carry liquefied natural gas from Algeria for Columbia Gas customers was launched in New Orleans. The vessel, as wide as a football field and over three times as long, can carry 2.5 billion cubic feet of LNG enough for about 14 000 homes for a year. Deliveries are set to begin by mid 1977. LNG forms by cooling natural gas to minus 260 degrees and occupying 1 600th of its gaseous volume.
