Virtual Pipelines

With high oil prices, transporting gas by road to customers not connected to the gas grid is becoming attractive. CNG Services is working on a number of projects using CNG and LNG as a way to give customers the benefit of natural gas. Using CNG or LNG in this way is known as a 'virtual pipeline'.

A trailer (see below) filled with CNG can transport around 5 tonnes of gas, an LNG tanker around 21 tonnes.

CNG Services provides a number of services in relation to virtual pipelines:

  • Feasibility studies
  • Design of compression plant
  • Specification of all plant (including CNG trailers) and management of tender process
  • Financial and regulatory advice
  • Project management through to commissioning and operations
