HAUG Natural Gas Compressors

Natural gas, primarily composed of methane, is a versatile and widely used fuel. Methane can be sourced from natural reserves, produced from biogas, or synthesized from carbon dioxide and hydrogen, often using surplus electricity to create hydrogen as a precursor. This process allows energy to be stored efficiently in the natural gas network, leveraging existing infrastructure.

As one of the cleanest-burning fossil fuels, natural gas offers environmental benefits, especially with the extensive infrastructure in place, including pipelines, natural gas networks, and refueling stations for vehicles. However, gas-tight systems are essential, as methane is 25 times more potent as a greenhouse gas than CO₂, contributing approximately 20% of the human-driven greenhouse effect. By preventing leaks, we can maximize the environmental benefits of natural gas while minimizing its impact on the climate.

HAUG Natural Gas compressors offer:

• No gas contamination by oil
• Technically tight, in operation and at standstill

Examples of natural gas compressor applications:

• Application as leakage gas compressor for the recovery of leaks
• Application as a booster for increasing the pressure of an existing natural gas network pressure, for
• example for use as fuel gas in the surface coating
• Application as a booster for charging gas engines
• Use in the synthetic production of natural gas from hydrogen (power-to-gas)
• Application for storing natural gas for vehicle refueling
