Brief description
DVGW Code of Practice G 102-1 specifies the general requirements for the qualification of experts. According to the DVGW regulations, certain qualified work in the field of gas infrastructure may only be carried out by experts. This worksheet, together with the respective technical requirements specified in its subsequent parts, serves as the basis for the qualification of experts who carry out tasks and inspections in the field of gas billing, as well as in the construction, operation, commissioning and decommissioning and maintenance of gas infrastructure pipelines and systems. The need for the availability of experts is defined in the relevant regulations drawn up by the responsible technical committee. This worksheet and its subsequent sections clarify the requirements that must be met in order for companies to appoint their suitably qualified employees as experts. The final decision as to which requirements technically qualified employees must fulfill in order to be appointed as an expert lies with the company itself.
