this is a fairly simple idea so ill make this idea short.
i thought of the idea of natural gas in Minecraft as a reliable fuel source and alternative to others. natural gas would be found underground by the player while mining. it would be found in small pockets of air, and would slightly distort the players view when found (in real life, natural gas cannot be seen. of course that would be too unreliable so i would say that it would emit transparent particles that are slightly visible).
when a player finds a deposit of natural gas, they can use an empty bottle and right click on the visible gas to contain it (just like dragons breath). this could be used for many things, such as a fuel source for smelting, gas lanterns that emit slightly more light than their regular torch counterparts, or can be turned into a lingering potion and spread it around. when a fire would be lit in an area of natural gas, surrounding blocks will have a higher chance of being lit, even if its not flammable.
i know this isnt really a useful feature, but it would be cool to see it in game.
