Gas Distribution

Efficient and effective transportation of gas over long distances, from producing regions to consumption regions, requires extensive and elaborate piping systems which are typically in the range up to >d315mm. The transport of gas can be a difficult task, so a safe and reliable connection is the key factor. GF Piping Systems understands your need for suitable tools, high-performance connection techniques, and parts, as well as competent on-site support. It is our experience and know-how in the construction, operation and maintenance of large dimension piping systems that enables us to find the right solutions for your diverse gas transport installations.

Gas is fed into the local public network at a location on the outskirts of town. Supply stations reduce the pressure of the gas to make it compatible with the distribution system and, at the same time, meter the gas flow. Gas distribution lines generally operate at 0.1 to 5 bar and are typically dimensioned in the range of d90 to d225. Our Polyethylene ELGEF Plus Systems utilize electrofusion and butt fusion components and technologies to offer you a quality assurance.

In the last stage of the gas distribution grid, service lines bring gas from the regional grid supply system into houses, buildings, or plants, passing through the gas meter. With our modular electrofusion systems, fittings and saddles are compatible and when combined, they form reliable and leakproof connections.

Seam gas is a by-product of coal mining operations, with the gas found in underground coal seams during extraction. During the digging of the deep wells, gas and water are removed during the process. In this application, leakproof and non-corrosive pipelines are a must. Our PE components offer a wide range of electrofusion and butt fusion solutions to ensure a constant gas and water supply and assure the reliability and safety that you need.
