Petroleum (Consolidation) Regulations 2014

The HSE have announced plans to consolidate and modernise the petroleum legislative framework in the UK. The consolidation is intended to update legislative provisions and make them simpler to understand. As part of this work, the HSE is also reviewing related guidance, including relevant Approved Codes of Practice (ACOPs), to consider similar consolidation and modernisation to help ease of access and use. The proposed consolidation maintains or improves existing health and safety requirements in relation to regulation of petroleum in the UK.
