What certifications are required for compressed gas & cng systems valves in Libreville?
For compressed gas & cng systems in Libreville, the applicable standards are: IS 15901 (CNG/CGD Valves), PNGRB Regulations, API 6D, Class 2500 (ASME B16.34), API 607 (Fire-Safe), API 6FA, ISO 15848-1 (Fugitive Emissions).

What is PNGRB approval and which CNG valves require it?
The Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) under the Indian Ministry of Petroleum regulates city gas distribution (CGD) networks. All equipment used on PNGRB-licensed CGD networks must be PNGRB type-approved, which involves testing to IS 15901 (for valves) and other Indian standards, followed by PNGRB listing. This applies to isolation valves on steel gas mains, service isolation valves, and CNG station valves. Valves at industrial consumers not connected to the CGD network (e.g., CNG used for industrial gas cylinders) may use standard API 6D or API 607 compliant valves without specific PNGRB approval.
What pressure class do I need for CNG station ball valves?
CNG is stored and dispensed at 200–250 bar (approximately 3,000–3,600 psi). ASME Class 2500 (PN 420) has a working pressure of approximately 414 bar at ambient temperature for WCB material — making it the standard pressure class for CNG station isolation valves. For cascade storage working at exactly 250 bar, Class 2500 provides adequate design margin. Use forged A182 F316 or F316L body (not cast WCB) for Class 2500 CNG service — forged bodies have better toughness and are the industry standard for high-pressure gas service.
