'''Battlefield Methane Tanks''' are equipment used primarily by [[Covenant]] [[Grunts]].
 
The Grunt's homeworld, [[Balaho]], is a [[methane]] rich planet and as such they breathe methane gas. Thus, when they are in a rich [[oxygen]] atmosphere, like that of the [[Halos]] or [[Earth]], they need to wear a methane gas tank. When Grunts are in battle, they may run low on their supply of methane, so they must have a ready supply nearby if required. These tanks contain the ready supply of Methane Gas the Unggoy need.
 
They are short and round in shape, purple in color and have a large blue valve on the top. The Methane Tanks are seen generally where Grunts are operating. They appear in ''[[Halo 2]]''<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', level [[Outskirts (Level)|Outskirts]]</ref> and ''[[Halo 3]]''.<ref>''[[Halo 3]]'', level [[Sierra 117 (Level)|Sierra 117]]</ref>
 
The tanks are also highly explosive due to their methane content, but it is unknown as to why they are not more armored, if they are on the battlefield.
 
==Trivia==
* if you shoot the blue "X" with a precise weapon it will burn for a while before exploding
* many confuse these [[Halo 2]] explosive crates for [[Plasma batteries]]
