SGS Provides Inspection Services for Compressed Natural Gas Cylinders in Spain
Due to rising gasoline prices and environmental concerns, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is increasingly used in public and private cars. To meet increasing market demand, SGS provides cost- and time-effective Visual Inspections of compressed natural gas cylinders. On January 18, 2010, SGS Spain received authorization to conduct Visual Inspections of cylinders for compressed natural gas in road vehicles from the Departamento de Innovación, Universidades y Empresas de la Generalitat de Cataluña.
Visual Inspections of compressed natural gas cylinders performed by SGS Industrial Services are in accordance with European Union directives UN-ECE 110R and UNE-26525, which regulate the approval of special engine components for compressed natural gas vehicles as well as inspection of the cylinder installation and verification of high pressure cylinders for the on-board storage of natural gas as fuel for road vehicles.
As a result of SGS’s multidisciplinary competences and innovative technology, the Visual Inspection of compressed natural gas cylinders allows significant cost and time savings in comparison to other inspection methods such as hydrostatic tests.
