Since we began operations in 1992, we have been defined by our strong commitment to continuous improvement, ethical processes, and effective communication.
Our ongoing concern for the safety of both our operations and the surrounding community has led us to certify our environmental and quality management systems in accordance with ISO 14,001 and ISO 9,001 standards.
Additionally, as part of the continuous improvement we promote through our Quality, Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health Policy, in 2006 we achieved compliance with the standards required for OHSAS 18,001 certification.

How to Operate in Pipeline Areas
For your safety and everyone's, please read the following information carefully.
How to Detect the Proximity of a Buried Pipeline?
First, if you are unable to determine the location of buried installations, the local Municipality can inform you if TGS pipelines are buried in the area.
The presence of markers serves only as a warning, but it does not provide sufficient information to identify safe excavation zones.
Please keep in mind that these signs or markers:
– DO NOT INDICATE THE EXACT LOCATION.
– DO NOT INDICATE THE DEPTH.
– DO NOT INDICATE THE SIZE.
Therefore, allow us to provide you with all the information you need.
