Type 1 CNG Cascade – 3000 WL Supplied to Chunar, Uttar Pradesh

Project Overview

Urjika Consulting & Engineering Solutions Pvt. Ltd. undertook a CNG/CBG plant infrastructure project in Chunar, Uttar Pradesh, involving the supply of a Type 1 CNG Cascade with 3000 WL water capacity.

The project scope included equipment supply, high-pressure tubing, installation, and commissioning activities. These activities support the integration of gas storage equipment with the associated plant infrastructure and require careful coordination, appropriate installation practices, and adherence to approved engineering procedures.

Project Scope

The project focused on the following equipment and services:

Equipment Supply: Type 1 CNG Cascade – 3000 WL.

High-Pressure Tubing: Tubing work for relevant equipment connections in accordance with the approved design.

Installation: On-site installation and integration of the supplied equipment.

Commissioning: Commissioning activities in accordance with the approved project procedures.

Understanding the Type 1 CNG Cascade

A Type 1 CNG Cascade is a gas storage arrangement that uses all-metal pressure vessels to store compressed natural gas. Cascades are used in CNG infrastructure where gas storage is required to support the intended supply or refuelling configuration.

The 3000 WL specification refers to the cascade's nominal aggregate water capacity of 3,000 litres. Actual usable gas capacity depends on factors such as operating pressure, gas temperature, cylinder configuration, and the system's operating conditions.

High-Pressure Tubing and Installation

High-pressure tubing connects gas storage equipment with other components in the gas system. Proper material selection, routing, support, fitting compatibility, and connection integrity are essential considerations.

Key installation considerations include:

Using tubing and fittings suitable for the specified gas service and design pressure.

Ensuring proper routing, support, and accessibility for inspection and maintenance.

Verifying the integrity of connections through approved inspection and testing procedures.

Confirming that relevant safety provisions are in place before commissioning.
