Safe and supplied instead of insecure and worried: LPG instead of natural gas.

Safely supplied.

Westfalengas is lique­fied gas from Wes­tern Eu­rope. De­live­ries are made relia­bly, in­de­pen­dently of pipe­line net­works, with our own fleet of vehi­cles.

Quick changeover.

Many systems can be quick­ly and easily con­ver­ted from natu­ral gas to LPG opera­tion. We will be happy to ad­vise you on this.

Powerful performance.

At around 28 kWh/m3, the ener­gy con­tent of LPG is even higher than that of na­tural gas (approx. 11.3 kWh/m3). Be­cause so much goes into it, you also get a lot out of it. That's why we let our fleet roll to you se­veral times a week if neces­sary.

Great result.

By switching to Westfalengas, you can se­cure your eco­nomic sup­ply of pro­cess heat. Ex­pe­rienced West­falen­gas energy experts will sup­port you in the pro­cess.

Gone are the days when natural gas flowed through the pipelines as a matter of course - safely and cleanly calculable. What is the alternative? Westfalengas!

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about liquid gas as process energy.

What advantages does liquid gas have in production compared to other energy sources? 

In contrast to other energy sources, liquid gas is not tied to long-distance pipelines. It has a high energy density, it is easy to transport, and is available in large quantities worldwide. Liquefied gas burns with very low emissions and can be easily combined with renewables. Liquefied gas - although fossil fuel - is an excellent, flexible companion to the energy transition. 

Is liequid gas also suitable for high-temperature processes? 

Yes. Liquefied gas also easily fuels thermal processes in the high-temperature range.
