Air Products' proprietary technology is vital to helping meet the world's increasing energy needs and desire for clean energy. The company has provided equipment and technology for the world's first floating LNG facility. In addition, Air Products built a second LNG equipment manufacturing facility in Manatee County, Florida, where ready access to port services enables the company to manufacture the even larger LNG heat exchangers that are being demanded by the market. In September 2016, the company rolled out the first LNG heat exchanger produced at the Port Manatee facility, which was shipped by barge to a location on the U.S. Gulf Coast for a major LNG export terminal project.

A majority of total worldwide LNG is produced with Air Products' technology. In support of the LNG industry, Air Products provides process technology and key equipment for the heart of the natural gas liquefaction process for large export plants, small and mid-sized LNG plants, floating LNG plants, and LNG peak shavers. Upstream, Air Products provides both nitrogen and natural gas dehydration membrane systems for offshore platforms. Downstream, Air Products provides dry inert gas generators for LNG carriers, shipboard membrane nitrogen systems, and land-based membrane and cryogenic nitrogen systems for LNG import terminals and base-load LNG plants.
