Notes: Prices for LNG imports are reported as "landed," received at the terminal, or "tailgate," after regasification at the terminal. Generally, the reporting of LNG import prices varies by point of entry, and the average prices are calculated from a combination of both types of prices. For the "Other" area the point of origin for volumes of imported LNG was unassigned in the reports to the Office of Fossil Energy.  See Definitions, Sources, and Notes link above for more information on this table.
