Abstract: Over the past half century, an extensive network has evolved to transport gaseous fuels from supply sources to distribution utilities, to the endusers premises, and finally, to the burner tip of the gas appliance. The major components of this network are 350,000 miles of transmission and gathering pipeline, underground storage systems, peak shaving facilities for liquefied natural gas, and 1.5 million miles of distribution mains and services. This system is supported by an extensive array of compressor stations, regulator stations, and custody transfer facilities. While the existing piping system delivers natural gas safely and reliably, there are many areas where the overall network could be enhanced. Is there a material or materials that would not place any constraints on supply services, end users, or gas operators? With the many advancements in material science, it may be possible to adapt or design a new or alternative material that can meet the varying present and future needs of all customers, carries a multitude of gaseous fuels, and integrates into the existing system.
