DOE drafts standards for LPG sector

The Department of Energy’s Oil Industry Management Bureau said Tuesday it completed the draft Philippine National Standards on the liquefied petroleum gas dealer’s showroom and warehouse requirements with safety practices.

“This draft PNS has been prepared by the technical working group in response to the policy direction of the DOE to offer guidance and prepare a document reflective of the local regulations and safety requirements associated with the minimum facility requirements for LPG dealers who engage in trading or sale of LPG cylinders and canisters directly to end consumers,” it said.

OIMB said an LPG dealer’s facility may be a showroom, or a showroom and a warehouse. This showroom consists of the LPG display area, office space for business transactions, and stock area for LPG cylinders available for sale, and empty or returned cylinders/canisters. Covered in the safety practices are cylinder storage, cylinder stacking, LPG cylinders handling, personnel safety and informational signage.
