The SLNG Terminal sits on a 40-hectare plot at the southern-most tip of Jurong Island and began commercial operations in May 2013. It receives, stores and sends out natural gas, mainly for power generation, so tank, jetty and send-out areas are gas-hazardous. Distribution partners for Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island are being identified ahead of the Q4 2026 launch of the IS-04Z1.

The term · rugged
What “rugged” means for a smartphone
A rugged phone is built to survive water, dust, drops and rough handling, usually rated by an IP code and a drop specification. Ruggedness is an environmental property: it says nothing about whether a phone may be used where flammable gas or dust is present. That is decided by explosion-protection certification and marking.
The IS-04Z1 combines both: an IP68 sealed rugged build and a design for Zone 1 and Zone 21 (marking target Ex ib IIC T4). The explosion-protection certificates are in progress and none has been issued.
In Singapore LNG Terminal, Jurong Island. Jurong Island is hot, humid and exposed to sea air, and jetties add spray and tropical rain. IP68 dust and water protection, which is a design goal for the IS-04Z1, helps with cleaning and weather. It is not explosion protection, which depends entirely on the Ex certification that is still in progress.
