ABSTRACT:
A natural gas distribution system includes a gas cylinder having a first axial end and a second axial end. Protective collars are selectively connected to the cylinder ends. A valve is connected to the first axial end and is disposed within the first protective collar. The cylinder may be stored and transported in crates that have a plurality of compartments. Each of the plurality of compartments is configured to receive one gas cylinder in a substantially horizontal position. The crates in turn may be transported in delivery trucks that have bays with inclined floors and roll-down covering doors. An automatic air ventilation system makes sure that there is always air flow through the truck so there is no accumulation of any gas escaping from the cylinders in the truck. The truck may be equipped with refueling piping so that individual cylinders are refilled in the truck.
