Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) is South Korea’s national natural gas company, founded in 1983 and headquartered in Daegu. It plans, procures, and imports liquefied natural gas (LNG) and operates the country’s LNG receiving, storage, and regasification terminals—along with the high‑pressure trunk pipeline network—supplying gas to power generators and city gas distributors that serve industrial, commercial, and residential customers.

KOGAS is among the world’s largest LNG buyers, sourcing volumes under long‑term and spot arrangements from diverse regions. It also holds equity stakes in upstream gas and LNG projects across the Middle East, Africa, Asia‑Pacific, and North America. Beyond LNG, the company develops infrastructure and businesses in hydrogen and other low‑carbon gases, as well as carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), to support South Korea’s energy transition. Reliable gas supply from KOGAS underpins feedstock and energy needs for the country’s chemical and petrochemical sectors.
