(Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) refers to a group of light hydrocarbon gases, specifically Propane (C3H8) and Butane (C4H10), known as “Natural Gas Liquids” (NGLs). Under normal temperature and pressure, LPG exists as a gas, but when subjected to moderate pressure or cooling, it transforms into a liquid.

LPG is an environmentally friendly source of energy with numerous applications across various sectors such as domestic heating, cooking, water heating, industrial processes, agriculture, catering, automotive fuel, and refrigeration. It is widely used by millions of consumers worldwide. When burned, LPG emits lower carbon dioxide levels compared to other oil-based products, making it one of the cleanest energy sources. Experts anticipate that LPG will continue to meet global demand for years to come.

Sources of LPG

LPG comes from two primary sources:

1. Natural Gas Fields:

LPG is extracted from natural gas fields where it is separated from the gas during the process of condensation. These are often referred to as Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs).

2. Oil Refineries:

LPG is also a byproduct of crude oil refining. It is one of the lighter fractions produced during the stabilization of crude oil for shipment, ensuring its vapor pressure is reduced.

Benefits of Using LPG

1. Portable:

LPG can be easily transported and stored in various locations around the world. It does not require a fixed network and remains stable over time without degradation.

2. Clean:

LPG is a clean-burning fuel with lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to other fossil fuels. It is non-toxic and does not pose risks to soil or water supplies in case of a leak.

3. Accessible:

LPG is widely available and accessible to consumers globally. It doesn’t require significant infrastructure investments, and there are sufficient reserves to meet global needs for decades.

4. Efficient:

LPG is highly efficient, converting a large proportion of its energy content into heat. It is up to five times more efficient than traditional fuels, leading to less energy waste and better resource utilization.

5.Versatile: LPG

serves as a multi-purpose energy source with thousands of applications, including cooking, heating, air conditioning, and powering vehicles. It is even used to fuel the Olympic torch.

6. Non-Toxic:

LPG is non-toxic, making it safe to use indoors for cooking and heating. Forklifts in warehouses use it without requiring special ventilation, and it is used as an environmentally friendly aerosol propellant, replacing harmful alternatives like Freon.

In summary, LPG stands out as a modern, efficient, and sustainable energy solution with a wide range of applications and benefits, making it an essential fuel for the future.

Domestics
  • LPG caters to all types of energy needs in households, high rise buildings and housing colonies including cooking, space heating and water heating.
    • With a significant proportion of homes and indeed land on which homes can be built, the choice of heating technology can present a dilemma for self-builders & developers constructing a property in a location where NG is not available. However Super Gas provides following benefits enabling them to take prudent decision of selecting fuel of choice.
  • First and foremost are Super Gas’s environmental credentials – it is the lowest carbon fossil fuel available to customers
  • However, self-builders and developers looking to build a home which can genuinely boast low carbon technology as a unique selling point will broaden their options if they choose Super Gas as the starting point
  • The easy-to-maintain LPG Bulk Tank assures consistent supply to entire colony without fear of pressure drop and provide peace of mind that ample stock of Super Gas is available
  • Hassle Free delivery at the door step through mobile tankers makes life more easy and endorses the prudent decision of making Super Gas as a fuel of choice
  • It is also worth considering the many other advantages Super Gas offers compared to other fuels. Thanks to the telemetry systems installed at customer sites, Super Gas is as reliable as Natural Gas
  • The telemetry system notifies the company as soon as the Super Gas in the tank is running low and automatically schedules a refill – ensuring that the customer never runs out of LPG. Furthermore, we have the most extensive delivery fleet of Super Gas supply vehicles in Pakistan and the largest storage facilities of any LPG supplier, meaning security of supply all year round is just as dependable as piped Natural Gas
  • Off the grid land owners need special attention; constant development and innovation is the key to ensuring LPG is the future fuel, playing a pivotal role in eco-friendly home and business development.
