Naphtha Tank Blanket Gas

[Munalizer]

Hello Friends,
I would like to know which gas can be used in blanketing of naphtha storage tanks to prevent moisture ingress. Currently I am using refinery fuel gas and it is costly. What other options are there for gas blanketing?

Nitrogen is also used, you'd have to consider its cost at your facility compared to fuel gas.

In particular Mr Montemayor's contribution.

I have only seen refinery fuel gas or nitrogen used.
