Australia, an ally of the United States, is also a resource exporter, and in fact, while exporting coal and iron ore, Australia is also exporting natural gas. Unlike Russia,which exports natural gas to China, the U.S. and Australia export natural gas that need to be transported by LNG carriers, which eliminates the need for natural gas pipeline transportation, which can reduce the cost of some hardware investment.
