Quick Facts: Underground storage caverns are used to store very large quantities of unrefined petroleum and natural gas. These underground caverns are cavities that have been "mined" out of naturally occurring salt domes. Approximately 7% of total underground natural gas storage capacity is in Salt Caverns.

Publish with us. This book summarizes achievements and technology of China''s underground gas storage in the past 20 years based on years of experience and technology accumulated in the construction and operation of gas storages. It analyses and projects the future construction of underground gas storages in China.
Underground storage working natural gas capacity in the United States increased 18.2 percent between 2002 and 2014, helping to ensure that natural gas is available when it is needed most. Approximately 4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas can be stored and withdrawn for consumer use.
The 2021 GIE storage map constitutes an essential, accessible tool to enhance the transparency of the underground gas storage market. Relying on a solid database available online, it locates and lists the different types of underground gas storage facilities in Europe, as well as nearby infrastructures, and complements the operational …
Lobodice underground gas storage is the only aquifer storage and at the same time the first underground gas storage within the territory of the Czech Republic. It is situated in Hornomoravský valley basin, 13 kilometers to the southwest from Přerov, close to Lobodice municipality. Structures of the underground gas storage are located on both ...
PHMSA plans to issue interim regulations regarding underground natural gas storage in the coming months, incorporating API Recommended Practices 1170 and 1171. The API RP would, for the first time, impose minimum requirements for operators to assess the operational safety of their storage facilities, and document the implementation of …
This paper defines and discusses underground gas storage, highlighting commercial and pilot projects and the behavior of different gases (i.e., CH 4, H 2, and CO 2) when stored underground, as well as associated modeling investigations.
Although it appears surprising that gas is put back into the ground after expending so much time, effort and money on extracting it in the first place, underground gas storage (UGS) plays an ...
Underground gas storage is back in the spotlight with the current gas crisis, which once again illustrates its importance for security of supply, especially in Europe. The new 2021 Underground Gas Storage Report published by CEDIGAZ therefore includes an in-depth analysis of the underlying causes of the current crisis and highlights …

Underground Natural Gas Storage. This site is administered by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). It provides information concerning Safe Operations of Underground Gas Storage Facilities for Natural Gas.
Although it appears surprising that gas is put back into the ground after expending so much time, effort and money on extracting it in the first place, underground gas storage (UGS) plays an important role in the management of the gas supply chain. UGS has been used effectively for nearly a century to balance the mismatch in gas supply and demand.
Underground gas storage is mainly used for gas peak shaving and safe gas supply, and is the infrastructure to ensure national energy security 3. With the maturity of technology and theoretical ...
Underground storage caverns are used to store very large quantities of unrefined petroleum and natural gas. These underground caverns are cavities that have been "mined" out of naturally occurring salt domes. Approximately 7% of total underground natural gas storage capacity is in Salt Caverns.
This report addresses three aspects of the state of and issues concerning the underground storage of natural gas: the history of storage development and its physical characteristics and the need for storage; the economics of underground
4.3. Underground thermal energy storage in aquifers. The underground thermal energy storage in aquifers in China dates back to the 1960s. Shanghai carried out large-scale thermal energy storage in aquifers based on "irrigation in winter and use in summer", supplemented by "irrigation in summer and use in winter".
Natural gas-a colorless, odorless, gaseous hydrocarbon-may be stored in a number of different ways. It is most commonly held in inventory underground under pressure in three types of facilities. These are: (1) …
