If your plant runs on fuel oil or LPG, LNG (natural gas) is a cleaner, more cost-effective and more reliable alternative — delivered to you across Northern Vietnam from ITECO's terminal in Hai Phong.
Natural gas burns with near-zero sulphur and particulates, and ~25–30% less CO₂ than fuel oil — helping you meet tightening environmental rules.
At industrial scale, LNG is typically more cost-competitive per unit of energy than LPG, and avoids the price volatility of oil-linked fuel.
Clean combustion leaves no soot or ash — so less fouling, less downtime for cleaning, and longer life for boilers, kilns and furnaces.
How natural gas from ITECO compares with the fuels most Northern Vietnam plants use today.
| Criterion | LNG natural gas — ITECO | Fuel oil HFO / FO | LPG propane / butane |
|---|---|---|---|
| CO₂ emissions per unit energy | Lowest — baseline | Highest (~+30%) | Higher (~+12%) |
| Sulphur oxides (SOₓ) | Negligible | High | Very low |
| Particulates & soot | Negligible | High | Low |
| Nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) | Low | High | Medium |
| Combustion residue / fouling | None — clean burn | Heavy (soot, ash) | Minimal |
| Equipment maintenance | Low | High | Low–medium |
| Energy cost at scale | Competitive | Volatile, oil-linked | Typically highest |
| On-site storage & handling | Piped gas / scheduled LNG | Heated bulk tanks, spill risk | Pressurised tanks |
| Supply security | Dedicated terminal — truck & pipeline | Road tanker, oil market | Bottled / bulk delivery |
Indicative comparison for typical industrial use. Actual emissions, cost and savings depend on your equipment, load profile and supply contract — our team can model your specific case.
Direct combustion emission factors (kg CO₂ per gigajoule of fuel energy, IPCC defaults). Switching from fuel oil to natural gas cuts CO₂ by roughly a quarter — before counting the efficiency gains from cleaner burning.
Source: IPCC default CO₂ emission factors — natural gas 56.1, LPG 63.1, residual fuel oil 77.4 kg CO₂/GJ.
Near-zero SOₓ and particulates, lower NOₓ and CO₂ — a credible step in your decarbonisation roadmap and an easier path through tightening emission limits.
No soot or ash means heat-transfer surfaces stay clean, combustion stays efficient, and you spend less time shut down for cleaning and burner maintenance.
From 2029, ITECO's Northern Vietnam LNG Terminal supplies LNG by truck within ~400 km and natural gas by pipeline nearby — a dedicated, local source built for continuous industrial demand.
