UMOE Advanced Composites ASUMOE Advanced Composites (UAC) is the leading global supplier of large fibre glass type IV pressure vessels and modules for containment, storage and transportation of CNG, biogas and hydrogen for land-based, marine and offshore applications.
UAC type IV pressure vessels in high-strength fibre glass and epoxy resin materials are delivered with plastic liner, stainless steel leak-proof endbosses and customized manifold configurations.
Composite materials have lightweight, very robust, non-toxic and non-corrosive properties, eliminating risk of galvanic oxidization. UAC pressure vessels have wide temperature tolerances (-40°C/+65°C), excellent fatigue properties, durable lifetime and ultimate safety levels, compared to steel and carbon-fibre solutions.
Fibre glass pressure vessels are a price competitive alternative to carbon fibre cylinders.
UAC pressure vessels for gas storage and transportation are type-approved according to EN 12245-3, ADR/TPED/PED.
Our solutions for transportation of CNG, biogas and hydrogen consist of UAC type IV fiberglass pressure vessels, fixed in all-metal ISO standard or High Cube modules, or in MEGC hook-load containers.
The combination of low weight, high-strength fibre glass pressure vessels and lightweight design of our fully metal transportation modules offer optimized space utilization for transportation of larger gas volumes, while ensuring highest safety measures in case of collision or overturned vehicle.
UAC ADVANTAGE
UAC fibre glass type IV pressure vessels and modules for containment, storage and transportation of compressed high-pressure gases offer numerous advantages, including weight reduction, space optimization, larger volumes, superior safety levels, high-strength durability, expanded service lifetime and cost-efficiency of the overall gas logistics.
WE ARE UAC
Our mission is to improve our customers’ profitability and eco-friendliness through use of composite solutions, replacing traditional materials.
Since our foundation in 2006, our strategic focus has been on development and specialized production of large fibre glass type IV pressure vessels for containment, storage and transportation of compressed CNG, biogas and hydrogen as well as accumulator systems for motion compensation of offshore drilling rigs, winches and subsea cranes.
