Pipeline diagrams
Every five years, local fire and police services are sent full details of all Fluxys pipelines present in their area. If new pipelines have been commissioned during this time or if the position of existing pipelines has altered significantly, the fire and police services concerned are automatically sent updated plans. The fire services also have access via an internet application to the numerical database of Fetrapi, the Federation of Pipeline Transmission Companies.
Course for fire brigades
In the Pipelines working group of the Federal Public Service Home Affairs’ Civil Safety Unit, Fluxys contributed in 2007 to a practical course about the Natural Gas Action Card and the accompanying manual.
In 2007 all fire brigade training officers had the chance to take this practical course. The aims of the course are for them to subsequently pass on what they have learned to the fire-fighters and for the Action Card to be made part of fire-fighters’ training.

Emergency and intervention plan
In the context of its guide to emergency measures in relation to pipelines used to transport gas and liquids, Fluxys is always willing to assist municipalities and provinces when drafting intervention plans.
