Natural Gas System Design, Fabrication & Setting Services

Custom Natural Gas System Design, Built Around Your Specifications

No two natural gas installations are exactly alike. Pressure requirements, available space, metering capacity, communication systems, and regulatory requirements all vary — and off-the-shelf settings often can't accommodate them. That's where Holland Supply's natural gas system design and fabrication services come in.

We consult with customers to understand exactly what their system needs, then work with our trusted fabrication partners to design and build a setting that meets every specification. Whether you're a utility, an EPC firm, a commercial operator, or an industrial manufacturer, we can create a solution tailored to your project.

Common design requirements we handle include:

• Integrated instrumentation compatible with AMI systems, SCADA software, cellular networks, or landline communication
• Settings designed to fit constrained or non-standard installation spaces — such as building recesses or existing pad footprints
• Custom color coatings to meet facility aesthetics or code requirements
• Bypass configurations for uninterrupted service during maintenance
• Farm tap, grain dryer, and agricultural-specific designs
• Instrumentation configured to interface with a customer's internal operating systems

Whatever your project requires, we can provide guidance from the initial consultation through final delivery. Our team has worked with hundreds of utilities and operators across the country, so we know what questions to ask and how to navigate complex specifications efficiently.

Gate Stations, Natural Gas Metering Skids, & Large-Capacity Fabrication — ISW

For larger, more complex projects — gate stations, high-capacity distribution systems, and industrial installations — Holland Supply works with Innovative Steel Works and Fabrication (ISW), a specialist in large-capacity natural gas system design and custom skid fabrication.

Traditionally, natural gas metering skids, pipe supports, and fabricated settings have been supplied by separate vendors, creating coordination headaches, mismatched lead times, and field modification problems. ISW solves this by providing a fully integrated solution: the fabricated setting, the natural gas skid, and the pipe support system all from a single source.

ISW's proprietary skid design — featuring patented pipe and wedge supports — allows for adjustable height installation, easier field servicing, and significantly shorter fabrication lead times compared to traditional approaches.

  

 

The Tardi Station — Fully Customizable RNG Interconnect

Renewable natural gas (RNG) integration is one of the most actively discussed topics in the natural gas industry today. As utilities and developers explore RNG interconnect projects, the complexity and cost of building each station from scratch has been a significant barrier. The Tardi Station changes that.

Developed as a collaboration between ISW and KPA Engineering, the Tardi Station is the market's only fully customizable, patent-pending RNG interconnect package station. It's designed as an end-to-end solution for utilities and developers looking to streamline RNG interconnect projects without sacrificing flexibility.

The core Tardi Station package includes the skid base, canopy, SCADA/RTU cabinet, analyzer building, and all interconnect piping in one integrated, pre-fabricated unit. ISW and KPA can also incorporate customer-specified products, materials, coatings, and design requirements.

Key Tardi Station performance features:

• Completely mobile — can be transported on a standard flatbed trailer and relocated if operational needs change
• Eliminates the cost and risk of custom assets that can't be reused or redeployed
• Interchangeable spools for 2-, 3-, and 4-inch regulators, so the station scales as demand grows
• Standard 4-inch inlet and outlet headers
• Entire assembly pressure-tested to the maximum allowable by its components
• 100% X-ray on all welds
• Laser-etched QR code on each skid for digital storage of all TVC documentation
• Available with P.E.-stamped drawings
• Factory acceptance testing available and recommended; client inspections welcome
• Owner's material, coating, testing, and welding specifications accommodated upon request
• Typical lead time: 12 weeks from receipt of material

 

 

 

VersaSkid® — Patented Modular Natural Gas Skid Platform

The VersaSkid® is ISW's patented modular skid system designed for commercial, utility, and industrial applications where equipment and piping must be securely mounted to a strong, adjustable base. It offers capabilities that standard natural gas skid designs simply can't match.

The VersaSkid® features a sliding groove grid system that allows supports and stands to be precisely positioned in lateral and horizontal directions without field welding or permanent modifications. Retaining washers, bolts, and nuts lock components in place once positioned. This makes installation faster, adjustments easier, and future modifications far less costly.

The VersaSkid® Pipe Support system is designed specifically to integrate with the skid's grid pattern, enabling full three-directional adjustment (lateral, horizontal, and vertical) after installation. All materials are selected for long-term weathering resistance without sacrificing adjustability.

Together, the VersaSkid® base and pipe support system eliminate many of the most common field installation headaches — no welding required for support placement, no custom fabrication for height adjustments, and no proprietary components that create future serviceability problems.

 

VersaSkid® Barricade System — PHMSA-Compliant Vehicle Protection

Above-ground gas piping and equipment installed in areas accessible to vehicles present a significant safety and compliance risk. The VersaSkid® Barricade system provides a robust, PHMSA-compliant solution — engineered to meet the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration's integrity standards for the gas distribution industry.

The barricade is designed to be installed around existing piping and equipment without welding or other intrusive methods, making it practical for both new installations and retrofit applications. A patented connector system allows posts and railings to be assembled and disassembled using standard allen head socket screws.

Installation details:

• Corner posts, T-posts, and end posts are installed by concreting two feet of post in the ground
• Optional mounting plates allow posts to be bolted to existing concrete pads
• Right- and left-handed end posts maintain access to existing gates and entry points
• No welding required for installation or disassembly
• Designed for long-term weather resistance

 

One Point of Contact for Your Entire Fabrication Project

Most customers working on a natural gas system design project have to manage multiple vendors — a distributor for products, a fabricator for the setting, a separate supplier for the skid, and another for pipe supports. Holland Supply simplifies this by serving as your single point of contact throughout the entire project.

Here's what that means in practice: we help define your system requirements, source the right products from our extensive in-house inventory, coordinate with JNL or ISW for fabrication, and ensure the completed setting arrives configured correctly for your application. If you hit a technical question during installation, our team is available to help.

We've been doing this for over 50 years, working with utilities from one-person operations to systems serving more than a million customers, EPCs managing large-scale construction projects, and commercial and industrial operators with demanding and non-standard requirements. That depth of experience means we ask the right questions upfront and catch specification issues before they become field problems.
