Who Needs a SHEA Gas Passport?

A SHEA Gas passport is required for anyone accessing operational gas network sites or working on gas infrastructure projects.

This includes:

• Gas engineers
• Subcontractors working on utility networks
• Construction personnel operating within gas environments
• Supervisors and project managers overseeing gas works
• Contractors requiring proof of utilities safety compliance

Many gas network operators and principal contractors will not allow site access without a valid SHEA Gas card registered with EUSR.

If your role involves working on or near gas distribution or transmission networks, this qualification is often mandatory.

What Is SHEA Gas Training?

Access to operational gas sites is strictly controlled. Many gas network operators and principal contractors require a valid SHEA Gas passport before permitting entry to infrastructure projects, regulated installations or live gas environments.

The SHEA Gas passport confirms that you understand the health, safety and environmental responsibilities associated with working on gas distribution and transmission networks. It demonstrates that you have completed recognised training aligned with Energy & Utility Skills Register (EUSR) standards.

This training helps you to:

• Identify and control risks linked to gas installations and pressure regulating systems
• Reduce occupational health hazards within operational gas environments
• Work in accordance with UK health and safety legislation and environmental law
• Follow safe systems of work used across the gas industry
• Communicate effectively within site teams and contractor networks
• Respond correctly in emergency situations

Without a valid SHEA Gas card, individuals may be refused site access, which can delay projects and impact contractual obligations.

The SHEA Gas scheme promotes safer behaviour across the utilities sector, supporting consistent safety standards and protecting workers, contractors and the wider community.

SHEA Frequently Asked Questions

What is SHEA?

A SHEA EUSR registration gives confidence there is the required knowledge and understanding to work safely in an operational environment. The training embeds best practice in health and safety and environmental awareness and supports the HSE’s essential principles for good health and safety performance.

The one-day courses are designed for all individuals requiring access to operational sites, including supervisors and managers. All SHEA schemes were developed in collaboration with employers and key stakeholders from across the industries in our sector, so the content is relevant – all helping to improve the safety of the workforce and reduce costs associated with injury, illness or accidents.

There are no formal entry requirements, but all candidates must have a basic understanding of written and spoken English.

You will need a stable internet connection, a laptop or desktop computer. A tablet that is 10” or greater may be used. Mobile phones cannot be used under any circumstances. You should be in a room on your own but if this is not possible headphones must be used.

You will be sent an answer sheet that you must print out. It is a multiple-choice tick box style sheet and once completed you will take a photo and submit to the trainer. 

In compliance with the Energy & Utility Skills Register, SHEA EUSR registration provides evidence for an engineer that they are knowledgeable and understand work safety in an operational environment. A EUSR registration card qualifies an operations worker to access and work in a site related to the gas, power, and telecommunications sectors.

SHEA Gas lasts for five years and all other registrations last for three years, from the date of the course.

One working day.

The cost of training includes EUSR registration, a virtual card as well as a plastic smart card.

All EUSR SHEA cards carry the CSCS logo giving the individual access to operational sites.

EUSR SHEA courses are normally delivered online via a virtual classroom with a trainer to help and guide you through the course. The course can be delivered in a classroom subject to minimum numbers and if this is your preference, please get in touch to arrange a suitable date.

Multiple choice questions normally taken after each module.

Please feel free to get in touch if you can’t find the answer to your question.
