Abstract: As one of main drives of low-carbon economy and an important component of clean energy, liquefied natural gas (LNG) plays a more and more important role in primary energy supply. Incorporated with updated information of liquefaction plants involved by Chinese oil companies, the information about resource supply of global LNG plants is analyzed, the characteristics of LNG distribution worldwide is summarized, and LNG supply before 2020 is predicted according to the expected production order of LNG projects. Based on this, some recognitions about LNG resources and supply are proposed as follows: ① LNG resources are adequate in the coming 10 years; ② LNG resources are mainly distributed in Qatar, Iran, Australia and Nigeria, where recoverable reserves account for 82% of the total recoverable reserves worldwide; ③ LNG supply is predicted to increase by 9% annually
