Introduction
Compressed Natural Gas is an online training course that will examine the current and evolving market for compressed natural gas (CNG) fueled vehicles. While CNG fueled vehicles have experienced significant market penetration globally, their adoption in the US has been relatively modest due to the abundance of gasoline/diesel fuels, the limited availability of CNG fueled vehicles and the filling station infrastructure required to support these vehicles. The status of CNG fueled vehicles in the US has begun to change as corporations, local and federal governments and private individuals seek out lower cost and cleaner options than traditional gasoline and diesel powered vehicles.

Training Methodology
This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations.
Who Should Attend?
This training course is primarily intended for individuals involved with all production and processing of Gas treating and sulfur recovery requiring an understanding of the principles of these process operations.
Course Outline
Upon completion of this course the participant will be able to:-
- Recognize the scale and scope of the CNG fuel market
- Identify the processes of locating and producing commercially viable quantities of natural gas
- List the benefits of fueling vehicles with CNG as opposed to liquid fossil fuels
- Identify CNG pricing and how it compares to crude oil-based fuels
- Differentiate between Fast-fill and Time-fill CNG dispensing methods
- Distinguish between the different CNG filling station strategies, both those privately owned/operated and those open to the public
- Point out how large fleets operated by shipping and logistics companies are converting their energy-intensive operations to CNG-fueled vehicles
