Stakeholders advocate safety standards, best practices in CNG sector

Towards total adoption of Compressed Natural Gas vehicles, stakeholders have urged the government at all levels to put in place necessary safety rules and implementation of best practices for the safety of users, storage and manufacturing of CNG.

He said it is better to run vehicles on gas, which he said, is cleaner, less explosive, safer, 18 times less expensive than petrol and eight times less expensive than diesel, adding that since it is compressed gas and operative at high pressure, it is important to ensure safety practices around conversion, manufacturing, storage and use are enforced.

President, Assogas-Metano, Flavio Merigo, emphasised the need to ensure that only safe consumer products are sold in the market, adherence to ISO standards and personnel training, to halt the lack of competence in the CNG market.
