Natural gas is formed in the same method that coal and oil are formed. Plant matter decays in an area where oxygen cannot reach it. This causes it to break down differently than if oxygen were present. Over time the decaying matter becomes covered with a new layer of matter every year. More and more pressure over millions of years forms natural gas.
