Marine transport of liquefied natural gas (LNG) is well established and extensive precedents for the design of the ships and tanks exist. Fewer precedents exist for the transport of compressed natural gas (CNG). This paper describes the application of composite (fiber) wrapped pressure vessels constructed to the requirements of ASME Section VIII Division 3, Alternative Rules for Construction of High Pressure Vessels (Division 3) to pressure vessels for marine CNG transport. Since the density of CNG is much lower than the density of LNG, efficient transport requires that the pressure vessels be as light as possible while ensuring pressure integrity. The advantages of a composite fiber wrap and of Division 3 construction for this application will be discussed. Paper published with permission.

A steel pipeline containing niobium, vanadium and titanium as microalloying elements was tested for hydrogen embrittlement. Hydrogenated specimens intercritically annealed at relatively low temperature to develop martensite islands in a ferrite matrix basically exhibited quasi-cleavage fracture with some ductile dimpling. The objective of this investigation, carried out by the principal investigator is to study the mechanical properties and susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement effects on steel pipeline used for natural gas transport.
