    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for a modular compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station. The modular CNG fueling station modules include a control station skid, an interface module, and a compressor skid. The compressor skid includes a fueling station for fueling a compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle. Each of the modules of the modular CNG fueling station are configured as fully wired “plug and play” station modules. The control station module, the interface module, and the compressor module are each pre-plumbed with electrical connections to allow the CFS station to be portable and easily installed above-ground at a utility site.

    摘要: A tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container includes a container body having a mouth; a tube array component received in the container body; and a top cap sealing the mouth from above. The top cap is rotatable in the mouth. The tube array component is composed of a plurality of holding tubes. The holding tube is opened at one end thereof, wherein the opening thereof faces the top cap. The top cap has at least one tube access passing therethrough. Each tube access is atop covered by a tube access cover. The tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container uses a tube-array component composed of the a plurality of holding tubes to store the freezing tubes, and is cooperated with the rotatable top cap and an external robotic arm, thereby improving space utilization and thermal insulation, effectively ensuring safety of the freezing tubes, and facilitating automatic storage of freezing tubes.

    摘要: A gas supply marine vessel and a refueling facility are described. The gas supply marine vessel includes a hull with an upper deck having an elongated cargo cavity formed therein. Gas interface modules are disposed in the cavity and extend between hull sides, each module having a plurality of fuel vessel docking stations. A plurality of stacked fuel container assemblies are fluidically coupled to the docking stations. A gantry, is movable along the length of the cavity, straddles the cargo cavity between hull sides. An articulating crane is mounted on the gantry and it utilized to move fuel container assemblies to a fuel container depression formed in the deck of a floating refueling facility. The floating refueling facility includes a concave side to facilitate mooring adjacent a shoreline, the concave side forming angled extensions at corners of the deck with a linkspan extending from each of the angled extensions.
