With a focus on clean energy, Hexagon is introducing a new Mobile Pipeline gas transport module, the TITAN53, which employs the largest composite cylinder tanks in the world. After nearly a decade of success with TITAN products, customers want the ability to move greater volumes of compressed gases including natural gas, hydrogen and industrial gases.

The newly developed cylinders and module optimise weight and capacity to meet the 80,000 lbs GVW limit in most of the United States delivering an estimated gas volume of 492,000 scf / 13,932 scm.

Over 12,000 energy industry executives and leaders will have an exclusive opportunity to see the 53-foot-long system at World Gas Conference 2018 in Washington, being unveiled on June 26.

Hexagon's Mobile Pipeline president Jack Schimenti will introduce the TITAN53 at the Gas for Transportation Pavilion and share how it delivers almost 40 per cent greater payload while retaining all the advantages of the TITAN platform, the most successful Mobile Pipeline platform in the world. Applications for TITAN53 include energy intensive industries converting to natural gas, virtual interconnects, gas islands, vehicle refueling, and transporting industrial gases.

In the Industry Insights programme at the conference, Hexagon director Mark Babcock will discuss gas distribution and sustainability considerations including use of the TITAN53 on June 28. Babcock will present Mobile Pipeline: A Distributed Energy Solution for Natural Gas, Renewable Natural Gas, and Hydrogen based on his paper that was selected by the International Gas Union for outstanding industry innovation.

Hexagon's international team will be on site at the show to discuss how over 1,100 units of Mobile Pipeline modules have been successfully deployed around the world through 2017.

The TITAN53 is the most recent example of how Hexagon is adapting leading composite pressure vessel technology for a wide range of applications for compressed natural gas, hydrogen, propane and industrial gases. Hexagon is the leading composite tank manufacturer in the world with experience building fuel solutions for rockets, locomotives, ships, and vehicles. Hexagon's Mobile Pipeline also provides transportation, storage and distribution solutions. (SV)
