Gas Storage and Transportation Networks

Gas storage and transportation networks are systems designed to manage the supply and movement of natural gas from production sites to consumers. These networks include pipelines that transport gas over long distances, storage facilities that hold gas for future use, and compressor stations that help maintain pressure in the pipelines. During high demand, gas can be drawn from storage, ensuring a steady supply. This infrastructure is crucial for balancing the fluctuating needs of homes, businesses, and industries, while also supporting energy security and reliability in the overall energy system.
