YPFB Transporte S.A. said it plans to increase natural gas production to meet the growing demands of the domestic market and service ongoing contracts with Brazil and Argentina. The new investment plan of the state-owned company also contemplates restructuring YPFB to modernize management and optimize technology. Among the projects expected to enter operations between December 2021 and mid-July 2022 is the Tarabuco-Sucre Gas Pipeline (GTS) expansion, which will increase capacity through the construction of a 10-inch, 14-mile (22-km) gas pipeline on the Tarabuco-to-Yamparaez section (Chuquisaca region), to increase capacity from 29.9 to 45.2 MMcf/d (0.85 to 1.28 MMcm/d). The construction phase of the project is currently underway.
