Gasbehälter Möbeck, Spherical gasometer in Wuppertal-Heckinghausen, Germany.
The Gasbehälter Möbeck features a cylindrical structure measuring 37.72 meters in diameter and reaching a height of 66.65 meters with a storage capacity of 60,000 cubic meters.
Built in 1958 by MAN Werk Gustavsburg, this industrial structure held the distinction of being the largest spherical gas holder in Europe during the 1980s.
The transformation of this former industrial gas storage facility into a modern fitness center and office complex represents the evolution of urban infrastructure in Germany.
The gasometer supplies natural gas to 75 percent of Wuppertal's urban area through its transfer station, which underwent an extensive modernization in 2005 costing 850,000 euros.
The sphere structure, constructed with 30-millimeter thick steel plates, maintains a maximum storage capacity of 270,000 cubic meters of natural gas under pressure.
