Jetties
Two jetties accommodate LNG vessels from 2,000 to 265,000 cubic metres, up to the largest Q-Max carriers.
The SLNG Terminal sits on a 40-hectare plot at the southern-most tip of Jurong Island and began commercial operations in May 2013. SLNG began building a new LNG truck loading facility in August 2025, adding road-tanker loading to the terminal, and describes itself as the owner of Asia's first open-access, multi-user LNG terminal. Distribution partners for Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island are being identified ahead of the Q4 2026 launch of the IS-04Z1.
Pre-launch · certification in progress · Launching Q4 2026
Short answer. Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island has no appointed SAMS distributor yet: the IS-04Z1 is pre-launch (certification in progress, no certificate issued, launch planned for Q4 2026), and distributor applications are open.
Status: pre-launch. IECEx, ATEX, UKEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress and no certificate has been issued; launch is planned for Q4 2026. An operator's own vendor approval is a separate step. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.

An intrinsically safe Android smartphone designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous areas in Singapore LNG. It is pre-launch: IECEx, ATEX and NEC 500 certification is in progress ahead of the Q4 2026 launch.
Who operates there and which kinds of classified area a handset would meet, from the SAMS site research.
Two jetties accommodate LNG vessels from 2,000 to 265,000 cubic metres, up to the largest Q-Max carriers.
The terminal supplies about half of Singapore's natural gas for power generation, the remainder coming by pipeline.
The SLNG Terminal has an annualised average gas supply capacity of 9 million tonnes per annum and a peak capacity of up to 11 million tonnes per annum.
It has two jetties and four storage tanks: three of 180,000 cubic metres and a fourth of 260,000 cubic metres, one of the largest LNG tanks in the world.
Natural gas now generates over 90 percent of Singapore's electricity, compared with under 20 percent in 2000, so continuity of send-out is treated as a national energy-security matter.
When it opened in 2013 the terminal had a single jetty and two storage tanks, and it has been expanded in stages as Singapore's LNG demand grew.
Intrinsic safety limits the electrical and thermal energy in a circuit so that neither a spark nor a hot surface can ignite a gas or dust atmosphere, even when a fault occurs. The ib level, used for Zone 1, tolerates one fault. It is the usual way to make a handheld device that a worker carries continuously through a hazardous area.
The IS-04Z1 is designed on this principle for Zone 1 and Zone 21 (marking target II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4). Intrinsic safety is a design basis, not a certificate: certification is in progress and none has been issued yet.
In Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island. Rounds at an LNG terminal cover storage tanks, jetties and loading arms, and regasification and send-out equipment. A handheld intrinsically safe phone is intended for readings, photographs and permit steps in those zones. It remains subject to certification, which is in progress, and to SLNG's own rules.
SAMS is appointing authorised distributors ahead of the Q4 2026 launch. No territory has been granted for Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island yet and applications are reviewed company by company. Because a certified Ex device cannot be opened by an ordinary phone workshop without invalidating its certificate, SAMS looks for partners who can provide competent technical support and after-sales service locally.
Not yet. The IS-04Z1 is pre-launch and its certification is still in progress ahead of a Q4 2026 launch. No unit goes into a classified area before the certificate covering it exists. The datasheet, the certification schedule and safe-area evaluation units are available now.
There is no list price yet. SAMS gives indicative pre-launch pricing in writing, against a stated quantity and site, and does not commit to a lead time before certification completes.
The circuits are designed to limit energy so a spark or hot surface cannot ignite a gas or dust atmosphere, even with one fault (level ib, Zone 1). Certification of that design is in progress.
Likely candidates are lng storage tanks, lng jetties and loading arms, regasification and send-out. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
Apply through the distributor page with your company details and the territory you cover. SAMS reviews applications company by company and has not yet granted a territory for Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island.
Because natural gas supplies more than 90 percent of electricity, the terminal's continuity is a national priority, and maintenance on tanks, jetties and send-out systems is planned carefully. Short windows mean contractors usually need tools and devices approved before they arrive.
SLNG states an average capacity of 9 million tonnes per year and a peak of up to 11 million, with two jetties and four storage tanks, one of 260,000 cubic metres. A site of this scale uses several contractors, so expect formal induction and permits.
Jurong Island is a protected place, and SLNG controls site access and equipment approval. A demonstration would need security passes and operator agreement, and the IS-04Z1 has no certificate yet. Confirm requirements with the operator before bringing devices on site.
