Because a GJ is a measurement of energy, and m3 is a measurement of volume, the number of m3's in a GJ depends on the heat value of the gas. Gas is made up of many components, and each one of those contain different amounts of energy.

A rough average is about 40 GJ's in a e3m3 (1000 m3). So there is about 0.04 GJ's in one m3 of gas.

To get more specific, you'd need to know the heat value of the gas in question.
