In the reality of imbalanced global energy infrastructure construction, pipeline natural gas coverage still has a large number of blind spots — remote mining areas, island communities, industrial parks under construction, and temporary project sites. How can clean energy be delivered safely and economically to these places? The CNG Tube Skid (Tube Skid / Tube Bundle Trailer) is the solution designed precisely for this purpose.
As the preferred configuration for areas inaccessible to pipeline gas supply or for temporary gas demand, the CNG Tube Skid utilizes high-pressure cylinder bundles, skid-mounted integrated structures, and modular design to achieve the last-mile transportation, storage, and distribution of natural gas from the source to the end-user. Whether used as a fixed gas storage facility or transported on a container trailer, it can handle the task with ease.
Seven Major Application Scenarios, Covering Gas Supply Needs from Urban to Remote Areas
1. Mobile CNG Daughter Station — Enabling vehicles in urban or off-grid areas to refuel anytime
In suburbs or emerging towns where natural gas pipelines have not yet reached, CNG Tube Skids can be directly combined with compressor units to build mobile CNG mother stations or daughter stations, providing a stable gas source for CNG buses, taxis, and freight vehicles. This model has numerous successful cases in emerging markets such as Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America, serving as a practical path to replace fuel oil and promote green transportation.
2. Industrial Gas Supply — A clean fuel choice for high energy-consuming industries such as glass, ceramics, brick kilns, and steel
Industrial furnaces and kilns have extremely high requirements for a continuous and stable gas source. Glass factories, ceramic plants, brick kilns, and some steel processes are often built near raw material sources rather than in areas covered by urban pipeline networks. CNG Tube Skids can serve as daily gas supply devices for these factories, working in conjunction with the plant's gas storage facilities to effectively reduce fuel costs while meeting clean production requirements.
3. Emergency / Peak-shaving Gas Supply — A "backup gas reservoir" when pipeline pressure drops
During peak winter gas consumption or sudden pipeline maintenance, urban pipeline network pressure can drop sharply, directly affecting residential heating and industrial production. By pre-positioning multiple CNG Tube Skids at key nodes, they can act as peak-shaving buffer gas sources before pipeline pressure is restored, ensuring the continuity and stability of energy supply. This is an important component of urban energy resilience planning.
4. Mining Sites and Remote Construction Sites — A "mobile fuel station" for gas generator sets
Mining sites and remote infrastructure construction sites are often unable to connect to the municipal power grid. Traditional diesel power generation is costly and inconvenient to transport. Using CNG Tube Skids to continuously supply gas to gas generator sets can significantly reduce off-grid power generation costs, lower carbon emissions, and reduce the safety risks associated with fuel transportation.
5. Hydrogen Transportation (H2 Type) — Safely transporting 98–99.9% purity hydrogen at 200 bar high pressure
With the rise of the hydrogen economy, the safe and efficient transportation of hydrogen has become a key link in the industry chain. Huayan's H2 type Tube Skid is specifically designed for hydrogen medium, with a working pressure of 200 bar, compliant with ISO 11120 standards, capable of transporting industrial-grade or fuel cell-grade hydrogen with a purity of 98–99.9%. This product has begun serving emerging demand scenarios such as hydrogen production plants, hydrogen vehicle refueling stations, and industrial hydrogen end-users.
6. Islands and Coastal Communities — A practical choice when submarine pipeline laying is uneconomical
For islands or remote coastal communities, the engineering cost of laying submarine pipelines is often difficult to recover. By shipping CNG Tube Skids, natural gas can be regularly supplied to these communities for residential cooking, heating, and small-scale industrial use, achieving a low-cost breakthrough in energy accessibility.
7. Construction Sites — Flexible configuration for temporary heating and process gas
Large construction sites have significant temporary heating and process gas needs during the construction period (such as concrete curing heating, welding and cutting, canteen gas supply, etc.), but pipeline connection to the site has a long lead time and high cost. As a plug-and-play temporary gas source, CNG Tube Skids can be flexibly deployed and removed according to the project progress, eliminating cumbersome pipeline application procedures.
