ABOUT THE IGUA-SA MEMBERSHIP

The IGUA-SA is governed by a formal constitution as adopted by its founding members and provides for a formal platform or association that provides the required focus and leverage to constructively engage gas industry stakeholders such as National Government, Department of Energy, Department of Trade & Industry, NERSA, current and new entrant gas suppliers etc.

The membership fees are reviewed on a regular basis by the IGUA-SA Exco and may be amended based on membership numbers and specific output requirements from time to time. Fees are levied on a six-month basis from April to September; and October to March. If an organisation becomes a member within a particular six-month period, fees will be calculated pro rata for the remaining months of the six-month period.
