gas storage technologies

Gas storage technologies involve methods to store natural gas safely and efficiently for future use. Common approaches include underground storage in depleted oil or gas fields, aquifers, or salt caverns, which provide large, stable reservoirs. Above-ground options include pressurized tanks or liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanks, where gas is cooled to a liquid for compact storage and transportation. These technologies enable balancing supply and demand, ensuring reliable energy availability, and managing fluctuations in consumption. Advanced storage solutions prioritize safety, cost-effectiveness, and minimizing environmental impact while maintaining quick access to gas when needed.
