Is that ft3 of tank volume, or 750 SCF of NG with the tank at some pressure and temperature?

If its the 750 ft3 tank volume, being seamless may force it to be pretty long. Why seamless? (A 24" diam pipe would be some 285 ft)

What material, pressure and specification?
A lot of companies could build a nospec.

I don’t know what your intentions for the cylinder(s) are, but I think I can guess pretty accurately. This has been discussed many times before in these forums and the latest one I can recall is thread135-162528.

The site you want to visit to get information for your application is:


I hope this helps you out.
 
Thanks for replies
I'm so sorry I've changed the units, they are 26486ft³/750 m³, 250 bar.
 
That's a lot of stored energy.

I think you're talking about a pipeline, not a pressure vessel.
 
dcasto,

I've visit the site you mentioned, really outstanding, but due transportation regulation in my country, compressed natural gas is forbidden to transport in pressure vessels, only in cylinders, don't ask why, cylinder is a pressure vessel, isn't it? We intened to carry it on 250 bar to our customers (gas station, plants, factories, etc).

That's it! Thanks! I'm gonna ask them a price quotation high now!

Do you have their email address or other phone number than those informed in the site? The email address is not on their site you mentioned
