Dear,
Natural Gas Area is one of the Highly Fire Hazardous areas, therefore it is normally advice to use Concrete members with chunky section and more reinforcment covers.....
Else if you want to use Steel sections then you have to provide some Fire Protection (Passive) for the Members...
For fire protection You can cover your steel members with the concrete as Passive Fire protection.
Now it depends on you which material is economical for your site... But the important criteria should be Fire Protection...
