Bermuda Gas Acquires Atlantic Gas Fixed Assets
Atlantic Gas has sold its fixed assets to Bermuda Gas. These assets include bulk LPG tanks, 100-LB residential cylinder tubes, and 17-LB BBQ composite cylinders that are installed at various residential and commercial locations.
A spokesperson said, “The acquisition of these assets will mean that existing homeowner and/or commercial enterprises [such as restaurants, hotels, etc.] will not have to worry about who will be responsible for the care & maintenance [due to fair wear and tear] of these tanks/cylinders that are installed at their location, and relieve them of the responsibility for disposal, if required. As the new owner of these tanks and cylinders, only the propane supplied by Bermuda Gas will be permitted to be placed in these tanks and cylinders.
“As per Standard Operating Procedures, Bermuda Gas will assess these propane vessels [tanks and cylinders] to ensure that they meet Industry Standard Codes for safety and protection. If the vessel installed at your location does meet Code, then Bermuda Gas will provide propane. However, if the vessel does not meet Code, Bermuda Gas will arrange for a replacement vessel.
“Atlantic Gas’ 17-LB BBQ composite cylinders, which are identifiable by their red, blue, or grey tops, will now be accepted into the Cylinder Exchange program at RUBiS Service Stations.”
Ernest Marshall, Customer Service Manager of Bermuda Gas said, “Our infrastructure is set-up in a way to ensure long-term security of both propane supply and propane distribution throughout the island. With the recent acquisition of the fixed assets of Atlantic Gas, we can commit to all propane users island wide that they will have access to quality products and exceptional service. If you are either a new customer to Bermuda Gas, or a returning one, to avoid any interruption of supply and service, we encourage you to contact Bermuda Gas at 295-3111”.
Anguel Anguelov, General Manager of Bermuda Gas, “Propane’s advantage over similar electric-powered devices in Bermuda is the fact that it is more energy efficient, cheaper and emits fewer greenhouse gases. Since 1957, Bermuda Gas has consistently provided the clean-energy fuel you needed to keep your homes and businesses running. Though we have a proven and strong track record for over 65-years, we will continue to strive to be the ‘Brand of Choice’ for everyone. Our team are confident that we will continue to meet and exceed customer expectations in the future.”
