It is well known that cars, buses, trucks, trains, boats can and do run merrily on compressed natural gas (CNG) all over the world. Growth is huge as there is lots of gas out there and LNG trade is booming, bringing stranded gas (ie untouched reserves!) to market.
(re LNG by the way look at this.....

Qatar Petroleum is expected to place orders for 52 LNG tankers in total by early 2007)
I have previously said that you cannot run aeroplanes on CNG. Well, apologies for that, you can

The world is full of natural gas and its still being made (bio-gas). We can relax, roll on $100/bbl oil. No need to worry about all that hydrogen fuel cell nonsense. Don't waste natural gas in making hydrogen, its time to set fire to it in our vehicle engines, no technology or infrastructure issues of any consequence. Who needs petroleum?
Sorted.
