October 2026

Our October issue has arrived! This issue of LNG Industry opens with a report from Dentons on LNG contracting and the Middle East, and is followed up by articles covering small scale LNG, heat technology, gas treatment, modular LNG, and much more. Featuring articles from experts such as Gas and Heat, CB&I, Saipem, Black & Veatch, Honeywell Technologies, and more, make sure you take some time to explore this issue!

This month's front cover is brought to you by Gas and Heat S.p.A.

Reasonable, up to a point
Kenny Paton, Head of Oil & Gas for the Middle East, Dentons, UAE, provides a comprehensive overview of the question LNG contracts cannot answer.

Engineered from the start
Claudio Mura, Automation Manager, Gas and Heat, Italy, examines how effective automation technologies for small to mid scale LNG plants help to distinguish infrastructure that simply works from infrastructure that operators can rely on.

Hydrogen's hidden impact on LNG storage
Thomas Mullen and Randall Redman, Principal Process Engineers, CB&I, detail how hydrogen concentrations in gas distribution systems that feed LNG liquefaction and storage facilities could materially impact storage system minimum design temperatures.

Small scale LNG: Expanding beyond traditional markets
Davide De Bacco and Anton Marco Fantolini, Saipem, Italy, showcase the evolution of small scale LNG liquefaction from a niche solution for peak shaving and remote gas supply into a versatile platform supporting stranded gas monetisation, flare reduction, LNG bunkering, bio-LNG, and e-LNG.

Leveraging floating LNG experience to advance onshore LNG modularisation
Justin Ellrich, Kyle Haberberger, and William Breckenridge, Black & Veatch, demonstrate how integrating lessons from floating LNG can help to ensure optimisation for onshore LNG operations.

Rethinking LNG construction through single-lift modularisation
Tim Murphy and Kory Cureton, Armoda, USA, explain the growing role of single-lift modularisation in improving safety, quality control, and construction efficiency across Gulf Coast LNG developments.

Closing the loop on sulfur and mercury removal
Vivek Bagal and Kirsty Holmes, Honeywell Technologies, dissect why recycling spent metal-based absorbents deliver environmental, regulatory, and economic benefits.

What LNG's market momentum reveals about fuel strategy optionality
Jesper Sørensen, Global Head of Alternative Fuels and Carbon Markets, KPI OceanConnect, highlights how the most resilient fuel strategies will account for long-term LNG pathways.

Measuring methane at the LNG site level: When source attribution becomes unreliable
Alexey Yankelevich, Head of Research & Development, SPH Engineering, explores quantifying methane at LNG sites where per-source measurement falls short.
