Our Purpose

The purpose of the Society is to promote the safety and environmental performance of shipping and terminal operations for liquefied gases.

Some of the ways we fulfil our purpose are:

• Proactively develop best operating practices and guidelines
• Sustain a learning environment by sharing lessons learned
• Promote training and development of all within the industry
• Foster mutually beneficial relationships with regulatory authorities and other stakeholders
• Conduct our work with professionalism and integrity

Guiding Philosophy

SIGTTO will focus resources on a clearly bounded set of activities in which we have or can reasonably aspire to gain a distinctive capability.

We maintain our reputation and authority by having access to the experience and expertise of our membership and by avoiding any activities – e.g. lobbying for commercial interests of individual Members – that would damage perceptions of our impartiality.
