France imported 30.7 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas in 2023. The majority of the LNG imports came from the United States, followed by Algeria. Total LNG imports decreased in 2023, compared to the previous year.
Liquefied natural gas is gas that has been cooled down (approximately −162 °C) to facilitate transportation. During the liquefaction process dust, acid gases, helium, water and certain hydrocarbons are removed.
