natural gas tank

Methane storage container

A natural gas tank is a pressurized container for storing natural gas, either as compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG).

These tanks appear in vehicles that run on natural gas as an alternative fuel, in industrial settings, and at fueling stations.

Unlike gasoline tanks, natural gas tanks must withstand high pressure and are typically cylindrical rather than conforming to available space.
