It was founded in 1931, registered in Vevey, Switzerland with the Secretariat currently located in Barcelona, Spain. The IGU promotes gas as an energy source.

The working organisation of IGU covers the gas chain from exploration and production, transmission via pipelines and liquefied natural gas (LNG), as well as distribution and combustion of gas at the point of use. The IGU organises the global gas events World Gas Conference (WGC), LNG X and IGRC X, every three years. The WGC is held in the country holding the Presidency of the IGU.
