Welcome to EMA's website. We would love to have your valuable feedback.

EMA has implemented a gas safety regulatory framework set out in the Gas Safety Code in the interests of public safety in Singapore.

There are also exemption orders in relation to the Electricity Act:

  • Protect the public from dangers arising from the production, processing, storage, conveyance, shipping, supply or use of gas; 

  • Minimise risks associated with:

    1. gas pipeline rupture and gas leak incidents;

    2. different operating pressures in various parts of the gas pipeline networks;

    3. gas usage by consumers; 

  • Ensure emergency preparedness of all gas licensees in responding to gas related emergencies; and 

  • Require the relevant gas licensees to promote public awareness of gas safety.

Gas licensees are required to:

  • Develop robust gas safety plans comprising risk assessment and mitigation, and
  • Ensure effective risk mitigation measures in the production, processing, storage, conveyance, shipping, supply or use of gas; and
  • Demonstrate measures taken to eliminate or reduce the inherent risks in their facilities to such a level that can be deemed to be “as low as reasonably practicable”.
