<p>A method for re-gasification of liquid natural gas involves positioning a storage vessel (22) for liquid natural gas at a facility (12) that has at least one refrigeration unit (48) with circulating fluid heat transfer medium. A second step involves providing at least one heat exchanger (24). A heat exchange takes place during circulation through the heat exchanger between the liquid natural gas and the circulating fluid heat transfer medium which raises the temperature of the liquid natural gas changing it from a liquid phase to a gaseous phase in preparation for consumption and which lowers the temperature of the circulating fluid heat transfer medium in preparation for use in the at least one refrigeration unit (48).</p>
