What type of equipment is designed to compress natural gas for storage or dispensing?

CNG Compression Equipment is specifically designed for the purpose of compressing natural gas, making it suitable for storage or subsequent dispensing. This equipment operates by reducing the volume of natural gas, which increases its pressure, allowing it to be stored in tanks at a much higher density than it exists in its natural state.

The significance of compressing natural gas lies in its efficient storage and transport, enabling better utilization of space and facilitating distribution through various systems, including storage and dispensing units. This essential process is critical for ensuring that natural gas can be effectively managed and delivered in a safe and economical manner.

While the other equipment types mentioned play important roles in the overall operation of CNG delivery and usage, they do not perform the primary function of compressing the gas. The storage system holds the compressed gas, the dispensing system allows for the transfer of gas into vehicles or other storage systems, and transport equipment is responsible for moving the gas from one location to another, but it is the compression equipment that is crucial for preparing the gas for these subsequent stages.
