SMART INDUSTRIAL SAFETY SYSTEMS FOR CNG INFRASTRUCTURE: A REVIEW OF REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS, FIRE PROTECTION STANDARDS, AND AI-BASED MONITORING TECHNOLOGIES

This paper examines the provision of industrial and fire safety at compressed natural gas (CNG) infrastructure facilities, with particular focus on automobile gas-filling compressor stations (AGNKSh). The study analyzes international (ISO, NFPA, IEC) and national regulatory documents and evaluates the effectiveness of intelligent monitoring technologies based on RFID, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI). Systematic analysis, comparative analysis, and modeling methods were applied. The results show that, compared with traditional control methods, smart monitoring systems significantly increase the speed of hazard detection and the level of accident prevention, while also improving the economic efficiency of facility operation. The findings support the integrated adoption of digital monitoring technologies aligned with regulatory requirements to ensure the safe and stable operation of gas infrastructure.
