(Costa Mesa, Calif., U.S.), a business of Hexagon Composites (Ålesund, Norway), has received an order for Mobile Pipeline Titan modules from a global industrial gas company. The modules will be used to support growth in a key industrial gas market.
The order has an estimated value of $12.8 million (approx. NOK 135 million), and represents the continued diversification of Mobile Pipeline into new market segments. Deliveries are scheduled to start in Q4 2024.
According to Hexagon Agility, the all-composite design of the Titan cylinders and high-strength steel frame enables the safe transport of nearly double the gas capacity of steel tube trailers. This results in fewer trips to deliver the same amount of gas, improving operational efficiency, and reduces total cost of ownership and transportation emissions.
The competitive landscape of the industrial gas market has intensified globally over the past decade.
