Developing a standardised assurance framework for responsible gas supply chains

What is the RECOSI Gas Programme?

The RECOSI Gas Programme is developing a standardised assurance framework for gas. Since 2022, our Members have been working together to establish the programme, starting with the development of a ‘Common Set of ESG Requirements’ based on RECOSI’s Core ESG Principles.

An initial questionnaire and due diligence framework has been created, ready for testing and stakeholder input.

Throughout 2024, we will be carrying out broader consultation on the programme, testing our approach and further refining and developing the programme based on stakeholder feedback.

Who is the RECOSI Gas Technical Partner?

RECOSI Gas is working with Equitable Origin on the development of the programme and our initial due diligence framework.

Equitable Origin has significant experience in operating an ESG standard for gas in North America.

The ‘Common Set of ESG Requirements’ questionnaire has been developed based on the Bettercoal Code and the EO100 Standard.

How does this work?

Standardised Assurance Framework for Responsible Gas Supply Chains

  • Questionnaire

    Questionnaire completed by gas producers and suppliers, with third-party verification of responses and documentation.

  • Continuous Improvement Plan

    ‘Continuous Improvement Plan’ developed, outlining if/where there are gaps between current performance and the international best practice outlined in the assurance framework.

  • Driving improvements

    Work with companies on their Continuous Improvement Plans so that they can close the gaps and drive improvements in performance, where needed.
