Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a vessel for a compressed gaseous fuel. The vessel has a non-cylindrical shape and is provided with a bulk head within the vessel. The vessel is surrounded by a composite comprising a fibre reinforcement that is wound around the vessel. The vessel comprises a liner with a shape that is substantially the same as the desired vessel shape. The liner is provided with at least one recess that extends around the liner and divides the liner in sections connected to each other by a passage. The fibre reinforcement is continuously wound around the liner in different directions to ensure sufficient vessel strength and the recess is filled with fibres so that the fibres in the recess constitute the bulk head. The invention further relates to a method for producing the claimed vessel.
