An inert gas is one that won't react with other gases. You can store inert gases with any other gases - oxygen (an oxidizing gas) and argon (an inert gas) are commonly stored together in industrial settings.
SIC 2813 applies to INDUSTRIAL GASES.
A pressure vessel is a closed container designed to hold gases or liquids at pressures substantially different from ambient pressures. The pressure vessels need to keep the liquids and gases at a pressure where they can be stored properly since the outside pressure of the atmosphere might not be able to properly store the gas or liquid.
We store gases in fat bumbs
Because a lot of gas can be stored at high pressure. When presurized gas is released, it can be made to do work. (e.g. a jackhammer, or pneumatic drill.)

There are many gases. Major reason is industrial gases.
Gases by their nature are widely dispersed particles. It is not economical or sensible to store them at atmospheric pressure. 1 kg of BBQ gas, for example, would have a volume of 817 L whereas we buy a 12 kg cylinder that has a volume of around 12 to 14 Litres/liters. It makes sense to pressurise the gases for transport and storage.
Industrial gases include acetylene, argon, carbon dioxide, helium, hydrogen, neon, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, and oxygen.

During transportation, gases are often stored on deck because they keep on moving while in their container. Sudden movement of gases in a container can lead to unexpected tilting of a ship.
Pressure in gases is very similar to pressure in liquids. The pressure of a gas is always higher in the direction a force is acting e.g. gravity.
