Perth Gas Company operated as a gas producer located in Perth, Western Australia, with its facility set up in East Perth in 1886. The company's activities were eventually succeeded by other operators and new facilities in 1922.

Throughout its existence, the company implemented numerous upgrades and changes to its infrastructure.

During the 1890s, government interventions focused on regulating certain aspects of the company's operations and related legislation.

The Perth Gas Company went into liquidation by 1913, which occurred prior to the creation of the East Perth Gas Works about ten years later.

Archival repositories maintain company documents spanning from 1882 through 1913.
