The Technical Challenge

Address high-demand gas infrastructure by combining regulation, transport, storage, and operational safety in networks and plants.

The INELCO Solution

INELCO executed the construction and assembly of underground pressure regulation and measurement chambers, along with high-pressure steel pipelines and underground reinforced polyethylene networks for private works, land subdivisions, and projects linked to the regulatory body.

The scope also covered civil works and assembly of LPG tanks, gas networks, and fire protection systems, integrating associated services for secure supply and operational continuity in industrial facilities and residential developments.

As a long-term complement, tasks were included for the sale and installation of boilers, maintenance of gas stations, and cathodic protection monitoring of pipelines to sustain system safety, integrity, and tracking.

The Technical Challenge

Expand the capacity of a 132/33 kV infrastructure by integrating switching, protections, and new transformation outputs without compromising system reliability.

The INELCO Solution

INELCO developed the assembly of 33 kV cells, the manufacturing of a gantry connected to three 30 MVA transformer outputs, and the undergrounding of medium-voltage circuits in 33 kV and 13 kV to support the system's power expansion.

The project was completed with the manufacturing of LVDPs for protection, monitoring, and commands, integrating RTUs and battery banks for supervision and service backup in switching and control.

A set of splices, terminal connectors, Cu tubular bars, connectors, and current and voltage measurement cabinets was also manufactured to complete the electrical connection with high availability criteria.
