Hexagon Composites (Ålesund, Norway) announced June 21 it is launching a new Mobile Pipeline gas transport module, the TITAN 53, which employs the largest composite cylinder tanks in the world. The newly developed cylinders and module are designed to to move greater volumes of compressed gases including natural gas, hydrogen and industrial gases. The 53-foot-long system optimizes weight and capacity to meet the 80,000 lbs GVW limit in most of the United States delivering an estimated gas volume of 492,000 scf / 13,932 scm.
According to Hexagon, the TITAN 53 delivers almost 40% greater payload while retaining all the advantages of the TITAN platform.
