Determine buoyancy of bare and concrete coated steel pipe in water and mud

Bouyancy of bare & concrete coated

To find the buoyancy in water in lb/ft :

Design and Construction of CNG Containers (NFPA52 - 4.4)

4.4 Container Capacity. Containers are described by their liquid capacity and their design and allowable service pressures. The liquid capacity [ft³ (m³) of water] is the volume of liquid that is required to fill the container. The gas storage capacity can be calculated from the liquid capacity and allowable service pressure.

Natural Gas Vehicle Codes

A large number of mandatory and voluntary standards cover the varying facets of natural gas vehicle components, conversion, and manufacture, and the fueling stations, repair facilities and garages that service them. Following is a list and short description of the “NGV” series of American National Standards, developed through the Natural Gas Vehicle Coalition with support from the Gas Research Institute, the Canadian Gas Association and CSA International.
These voluntary standards represent natural gas vehicle industry “good practice” for the safety and durability of essential elements in CNG vehicle fueling stations and vehicle fuel systems.
