natural gas
\natural gas\ n.
The combustible gas found associated with petroleum deposits,
and also in other geological formations, comprised
predominantly of methane plus variable other constitutents.
It is an important source of energy, and is transported long
distances by pipelines, or in a liquefied state in tankers,
for commercial distribution. Some natural gas deposits
contain helium, and comprise the primary source of that rare
element.
Syn: gas.
