WLGA is the authoritative voice of the global Liquid Gas industry and represents the full Liquid Gas value chain. The WLGA brings together over 300 private and public companies operating in more than 125 countries involved in one, several or all activities of the industry; develops long-term partnerships with international organisations; and implements projects on local and global scales.
