Trinidad and Tobago is grappling with a series of fatal LPG gas cylinder explosions, with four lives lost since April. The Occupational Health and Safety Agency (OSHA) has confirmed that there are no existing regulations or standards for the manufacture of LPG gas cylinders or the importation of regulators and hoses. This regulatory gap has led to a market flooded with varying quality and safety standards of these critical components. LPG producers have attributed the recent tragedies to faulty regulators and hoses, urging the public to use only those compliant with international safety standards. A visit to hardware stores in San Fernando revealed a wide range of regulators priced between $60 and $150, with some lacking credible safety certifications. The absence of standardized regulations has raised significant safety concerns, prompting OSHA and the TT Bureau of Standards (TTBS) to work on drafting new policies. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries (MEEI) has initiated measures to address the issue, including reconvening the Specifications Committee for LPG to review and update national standards. Stakeholders are expected to meet soon to discuss these developments, as public anxiety over the safety of LPG usage continues to grow.
