The illustration depicts the process of producing natural gas employed by a company to distribute for customers. Overall, there are six primary steps in this sequence, beginning with the transportation of natural gas, followed by the transition to tankers and wagons, and concluding with the distribution to retail outlets.
The first two main stages focus on conveying natural gas to different storages. The process initiates at gas and oil wells, where natural gas is extracted before being processed at gas plants and refineries. Following this stage, the processed gas is transported via a pipeline, denoted as main underground storage, which connects to regional storage facilities. At this juncture, the gas is stored and managed until required for distribution. The transportation network consists of 40,000-litre tankers that transfer gas to regional storage, subsequently using 24,000-litre wagons for further transportation to retail outlets
The remaining stages involve the transportation of natural gas. After reaching retail storage, which has a capacity of 120,000 litres, the gas is finally delivered to consumers using 12,000-litre delivery trucks. This structured approach ensures that the gas is efficiently moved from production sites through various stages of storage and transportation before reaching the end users. The process ends when gas input is brought into play and ready to be ingested by retail consumers.
