Success story: Transportadora de Gas del Perú (TGP)

Transportadora de Gas del Perú (TGP)

Climate, hydrological and geotechnical monitoring for gas pipeline infrastructure in Peru

Implementation and operation of an integrated system that combines meteorological stations, hydrological sensors, and geotechnical equipment to monitor critical conditions along the TGP gas pipeline, with emphasis on monitoring the El Niño phenomenon on the coast and La Niña in the highlands and jungle regions of Peru.

The system is supported by 24/7 technical support with specialized alerts.

Key reasons for this project

Challenges

Challenges addressed

  • Monitoring in remote areas with high climate variability.
  • Consider changes in rainfall and temperature patterns associated with the El Niño and La Niña phenomena in order to adjust the design and operation criteria of the gas pipeline.
  • Integration of geotechnical stations and sensors with robust transmission.
  • Data continuity in areas that are difficult to access.
  • Adjustment of alert criteria for multiple regions.
