Pipelines

TGS has three pipelines that produce 60% of the company's income:

The Neuba I runs from Sierra Barrosa to Bahía Blanca. Originally built in 1970, it was expanded in 1996. One of the main supply lines of the company, the pipeline transports the gas supply from the basin in central Neuquén across Rio Negro, La Pampa and Buenos Aires provinces, ending in the General Cherri Complex. The gas is later transported to the Greater Buenos Aires area.

The Neuba II, built in 1988, was expanded four times between 1996 and 2000. The pipeline begins in Cerros Colorados Complex, in the Neueuqén basin. It crosses Neuquén, Río Negro, La Pampa and Buenos Aires, ending in Ezeiza, Buenos Aires. just outside of Buenos Aires. The pipeline is the main distribution for Buenos Aires and Greater Buenos Aires as well.

The San Martin is the largest of the three that provide natural gas to the Tierra del Fuego Province, Chubut province, Rio Negro, Neuquén, and Buenos Aires provinces.
