BGAS Approval Scheme

The British Gas Approval Scheme (formerly known as ERS) was inaugurated in Killingworth, Newcastle in 1966. The schemes objective is to assess by examination the knowledge and suitability of inspectors to work on British Gas Projects. The scheme is primarily designed for inspectors involved in one or more of a number of activities related to gas pipelines.

Since 1966 inspectors have taken the exams and have benefited from holding approvals which are recognised throughout the oil and gas industry on a worldwide basis.
