### Division 36—Production of liquefied natural gas
336 (1) The production of liquefied natural gas is the physical transformation of natural gas (in a gaseous state) into liquefied natural gas (in a liquid state) that has a concentration of methane (CH4) of at least 70%.
(2) The production of liquefied natural gas is specified as an emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity.
(3) The production of liquefied natural gas is a moderately emissions‑intensive activity.
> Note: See Part 4.
(4) For the production of liquefied natural gas, the basis for the issue of free carbon units is by a tonne of liquefied natural gas, that:
(a) has a concentration of methane (CH4) of at least 70%; and
(b) is produced as part of carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity; and
(c) is transported, as a gas or liquid, from the facility where the natural gas was liquefied and is not taken back to that facility.
