Membership Benefits
As the global voice of gas, IGU seeks to improve the quality of life by advancing gas as a key contributor to a sustainable energy future. These are the four categories of membership:
Charter Members
A charter member is the most representative gas entity in a country, most commonly the national gas association or a major oil and gas company. However, some Charter members are also represented by ministries and national regulators.

Premium Associate membership is available through an application process to Associate members. Premium Associate member status grants most of the same rights as a Charter member is entitled to. The number of members within this selected category, which is maintained for a three-year period, is limited to 15.

Affiliate organisations are organisations that do not meet membership criteria but can assist IGU with its mission, increase and rationalise cooperation within the energy sector, and generally promote the development of the natural gas industry. Both parties benefit and work together to collaborate on similar work activities.

@TheEconomist the hits nail on the head when considering challenges of #EU energy. Always easier to look to blame others rather than be truly objective about systemic challenges. Europe’s gas crisis can’t be laid at the door of any single actor. #ONGT https://www.economist.com/europe/2021/10/16/it-is-tempting-to-blame-foreigners-for-europes-gas-crisis
@TheEconomist on gas’s unique value in #energy & #sustainability dynamics “Many countries, particularly in Asia, need [#gas]to be a bridge fuel in the 2020s and 2030s, shifting to it as they ditch coal but before renewables have ramped up. #ONGT https://www.economist.com/leaders/2021/10/16/the-first-big-energy-shock-of-the-green-era
“One of the most sensible, economically-viable way to achieve sustained #energy market stability, inclusive economic growth and #SDGs is to consider #NaturalGas as destination fuel” HE Yury Sentyurin, #GECF SecGen at the International Energy Organisations’ Panel at #REW2021
