Richard Griffiths of UK-based industrial gas company BOC and Caitlin Sargeant of UK-headquartered hydrogen solutions developer Hykit have been appointed chairs of two technical subcommittees (TSCs) at the British Compressed Gases Association (BCGA), a trade association for industrial, medical and food gases.

Griffiths will lead TSC1 – Cryogenics & Pressure Systems, which covers the design, operation and testing of pressure systems. He succeeds Jon White.

“Our focus is to provide clear, competence-based guidance for those working with pressure systems,” said Griffiths. “This shift away from prescriptive language reflects the need for flexibility based on technical understanding.”

Sargeant will Chair TSC9 – Hydrogen & Other Gaseous Fuels, which is responsible for hydrogen and other alternative fuel matters. She takes over from David Hurren.
