Be real careful with this. All materials corrode under some circumstances. In the US natural gas service piping and tanks are usually carbon steel with copper tube sometimes used for indoor connections. If there's enough sulphur in your mix, you may want to consider something else. Finding out what your local utility uses might be a good first step. If you're going underground you'll have galvanic corrosion to worry about.
