Resumen en inglés This study shows the results of the analysis of the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) sector, bycovering aspects related to its production and consumption. Initially addressing the internationalscenario with countries such as Spain, Brazil, China, India and Ghana later, it makes theanalysis of the national scenario with a look at the participation of the sector within theenergy matrix. Likewise, a comparison with a matrix Colombian national level to investigatethe participation of the sector within the energy matrix and compare international and nationalscenarios. Despite its favourable environmental characteristics such as lower emissions of carbonmonoxides, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides, as well as fewer greenhouse gases. LPG has a lowcontribution to the national energy sector considering that energy demand is concentrated in69 % of liquid fuels, the LPG sector can barely reflect a growth of 0.4 % and it is not competitive.Intervention of public policy is thus required to increase its competitiveness within the basketof liquid fuels, in such a way that it becomes a viable energetic alternative and its sectorialstructure established from a public policy, allowing to supply a market and to satisfy the socialand economic necessities
