1 Petroleum Advisory Services, Energy Programme PETROLEUM AND LP GAS CYLINDER STORAGE INSPECTION GUIDELINES Last Updated 29/10/2014

2 Petroleum and LP Gas Cylinder storage Inspection Guidelines This guideline is designed to assist regulatory officers in Pacific Island Countries to monitor and inspect sites that store, handle and retail flammable and combustible liquids as well as LP Gas cylinders. These guidelines have been drafted with reference to AS 1940:2004 which is the Australian Standard for the storage and handling of flammable and combustible liquids and Australian/New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 1596:2014 for the storage and handling of LP (Liquefied Petroleum) gas cylinders. Proposed retail storage sites can be assessed and recommendations can be made using the guidelines. Furthermore sites that are already in operation can be periodically checked by officers whereby compliance or a non-compliance notice can be issued to site operators based on the assessment of the site against the guidelines. Based on the severity of noncompliance the site operator may be given time to rectify all required actions of the inspection. These guidelines will be part of a broader regional industry code of practice that will be developed by the Secretariat of the Pacific Community. Part A of the guideline is used for assessment of sites that store and handle flammable and combustible liquids (gasoline, kerosene and diesel) while part B is used for assessment of sites that store and handle LP gas cylinders.
