Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is also known as propane or butane. LPG is flammable in nature and mixture of hydrocarbon gases. The boiling point of LPG is below room temperature, and it could be easily evaporated at normal temperature and pressure. LPG is commonly imparted in pressurized steel vessels. They are usually filled up to 80 – 85% of their capacity to permit for thermal expansion of the contained liquid. LPG is produced by petroleum refining, and is mainly obtained from fossil fuel sources, manufactured during the petroleum refining (crude oil), or obtained from petroleum or natural gas streams, as they come out from the ground. It is commonly used as fuel in cooking equipment, heating appliances, and vehicles. Moreover, it is increasingly used as a refrigerant and an aerosol propellant, in the place of chlorofluorocarbon, in order to reduce damage to the ozone layer.

Based on source, the global LPG market can be segmented into refineries, associated gas, and non-associated gas. LPG prepared through crude oil refining accounted for around 40% of the global LPG production in 2014. The non-associated gas segment is expected to contribute to the maximum LPG production, during the forecast period. In 2014, Middle East is the largest producer of LPG globally, and is expected to contribute high LPG production volume. Though, a large volume of LPG produced is expected to be captively consumed by large petrochemical complexes coming up in the region. In the last three years, the U.S. is witnessing a shale gas boom in the country, and has emerged as a net exporter of LPG. A majority of the surplus LPG production from the U.S. is likely to be routed to Latin American countries, where there is an increasing demand for LPG from the domestic and commercial sector.
