Feasibility study of the introduction of GAS equipment as a direction for optimizing the activities of refill stations

Abstract

The article reveals the expediency of the transformation of gas stations into AGCNS on the example of the Republic of Tatarstan. The trend towards an increase in the number of vehicles requiring the expansion of gas station operations by providing gas installations and related gas equipment is explained. The composition of the gas infrastructure necessary to expand the activities of the gas station has been determined. The main key components of the expediency of expanding the number of CNG stations both in the central districts of Kazan and in the outskirts of the city and access roads are identified. The technical characteristics of the DTRA-NGX gas dehumidifier are provided as the most in-demand model in the gas equipment system in relation to a potential CNG station in one of the central districts of Kazan and on the outskirts, depending on the traffic flow. The characteristics of the compressor, which is suitable for the DTRA-NGX dehumidifier, taking into account the specifics of performance, have been determined. Based on the average investment volumes in CNG stations, economic indicators for one gas station were determined and key parameters were identified that determine the financial efficiency of CNG stations during the planned payback period. Due to these indicators and against the background of the new M-12 highway, the potential for a significant reduction in the payback period of the investment project under consideration has been identified.
