This prestigious partner pioneered the concept of combined natural gas distribution to industrial, commercial and private consumers. Today, more than three million customers receive gas from this reliable supplier serving over one million compressed natural gas users.

Independent SGS Services in India

SGS has been providing inspection services for pipeline construction activities in India under ASME B 31.8 and the requirements as stipulated by the Indian Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulation Board (PNGRB) since March of 2007. SGS was chosen to assist in this new project based upon its past experience in the inspection of similar natural gas pipeline and its registration with PNGRB.

As nominated dedicated manager in the Surat project, SGS will again provide this client with day to day progress reporting, regularly meet with client representatives to address and solve any arising problems and responsibly enforce PNGRB guidelines with all hired contractors. Twenty-eight SGS deputy mechanical engineers will provide independent on-site inspection services  throughout the construction period. Moreover, these SGS experts will conduct testing, oversee commissioning and issue certification for the PE pipeline project.
