An apparatus for gas storage is described. The apparatus contains a storage array structure including a gas storage portion tapered into at least one neck portion at one end of the structure. The storage array structure includes a plurality of tubular chambers for gas storage. At least a portion of an outer surface of the storage array structure is enveloped by at least one reinforcing layer for providing reinforcing strength thereto. The apparatus also includes at least one interface coupler mounted on the reinforcing layer at the neck portion. The interface coupler is configured for coupling the tubular chambers of the storage array structure to a gas pipe through which the gas can be supplied to the chambers of the array structure or discharged therefrom.
