Peru: new technology enables Lima’s filling station to deliver 22,000 m3 of natural gas

Fuel delivery is generated with the installation of two packaged Microbox® compressors, developed by Argentinean company GNC Galileo, which has also provided the station with six EMB-15-1-D pumps with twelve hoses in total to serve light vehicles, and one EMB-50-1-D pump with two hoses to serve heavy-duty vehicles. The facility regularly delivers fuel to buses and taxis.

Executives from the equipment provider applauded the volume of sales achieved by this fueling point. “This makes us feel a great sense of pride because it confirms the high performance of Microbox® CNG compression equipments when meeting high levels of demand,” said Osvaldo del Campo, CEO of Galileo.

According to information gathered by NGVJournal.com, there are currently 44 of these compression systems installed in 38 CNG stations in Peru. In addition, other four Microbox® are distributed in the Virtual Pipeline® operations, the natural gas road transportation by trucks developed by Galileo to supply remote communities and industries away from gas pipeline distribution network. One of these equipments is used as a mother station, whereas the other three are daughter stations in the Ica Region.
