Deck General USCG Question #1441 (Set 45)

In what condition is LNG transported?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — At its boiling point.

LNG is transported as a cryogenic liquid at its boiling point, typically around -162°C at atmospheric pressure. Maintaining this state requires specialized insulated tanks to prevent heat ingress, which would cause the liquid to boil off into vapor, increasing tank pressure and necessitating boil-off gas management systems.
