CNG Services is working on a number of projects using CNG and LNG as a way to give customers the benefit of natural gas. Using CNG or LNG in this way is known as a 'virtual pipeline'.

CNG Services provides a number of services in relation to virtual pipelines: Feasibility studies Design of compression plant Specification of all plant (including CNG trailers) and management of tender process Financial and regulatory advice Project management through to commissioning and operations
