Purpose and Procedure for Drafting the Document
What Is a Gas Emergency Report?
A gas emergency report is a formal document used to record the details and response to a major gas emergency, such as a large leak, carbon monoxide incident, or fire. It captures the emergency type, severity, actions taken, and notifications made to relevant authorities.
Who Uses This Template?
This template is intended for Gas Safe registered engineers, emergency services (fire brigade), gas network operators, and health and safety officials who need to document a coordinated emergency response.
Key Features
The template includes sections for emergency details, response actions, findings (defects and observations), participants, and photo evidence. It supports multiple participants and conditional fields for network and HSE notifications.
Major Gas Leak Response
When a major gas leak is detected, this report documents the evacuation, isolation, ventilation, and emergency repairs, as well as notification of the gas network operator.
Carbon Monoxide Incident
For incidents involving elevated carbon monoxide levels, this template records CO readings, flue flow tests, and actions taken to mitigate the hazard.
Gas-Related Fire
In the event of a fire caused by gas, this report captures the emergency response, involvement of the fire brigade, and any repairs or isolation performed.
Regulatory Reporting
The report may be used to notify the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) of a gas incident, providing a detailed account of the emergency and response.
Post-Incident Review
Organizations can use this template for internal post-incident reviews to analyze the response and improve future emergency procedures.
- 1
Receive Emergency Call
Receive an emergency call reporting a major gas leak, carbon monoxide incident, or fire.
- 2
Attend and Make Safe
Attend the site, evacuate occupants, isolate the gas supply, and ventilate the area. Assess the situation and determine the cause.
- 3
Carry Out Emergency Repairs
Perform emergency repairs as necessary to stop the leak or mitigate the hazard. Notify the gas network operator and, if required, the HSE.
- 4

Frequently Asked Questions about Photo Reports and Photo Tables
What types of emergencies does this report cover?
This report covers major gas emergencies including large gas leaks, carbon monoxide incidents, and fires involving gas. It is designed for situations that require immediate response and may involve multiple agencies.
Who should be listed as participants in a gas emergency report?
Participants typically include the Gas Safe registered engineer, gas network operator, emergency services (fire brigade) if involved, and optionally a representative from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Each participant's role and signature may be recorded.
Is it mandatory to notify the gas network operator?
In many cases, yes. The template includes a field to indicate whether the gas network operator was notified. For major leaks or emergencies affecting the distribution network, notification is typically required.
How does this template differ from a Gas Leak Report?
A Gas Emergency Report is used for major incidents that may involve fire, carbon monoxide, or large leaks requiring multi-agency response. A Gas Leak Report is for smaller, contained leaks where the engineer can perform repairs and retest without external notifications.
Can I use this template for a minor gas leak?
It is recommended to use the Gas Leak Report template for minor leaks. The Gas Emergency Report is designed for more severe incidents that require evacuation, network notification, or HSE involvement.
