Business Summary
Transportadora de Gas del Sur S.A. (TGS) is a transporter of natural gas in Argentina, currently delivering approximately 60% of the country's total gas consumption through 6,987 kilometers (4,336 miles) of pipelines, with a current delivery capacity of approximately 58 million cubic meters per day (approximately two billion cubic feet per day). Substantially all of TGS' capacity is subscribed under firm long-term transportation contracts. TGS is also a processor of natural gas and a marketer of liquid petroleum gases in Argentina. The Company also operates the General Cerri gas processing complex and the associated Galvan loading and storage facility in Bahia Blanca, Buenos Aires Province, where natural gas liquids are separated from gas transported through the Company's pipeline system and stored for delivery. TGS was created in connection with the privatization of Gas del Estado S.E., the state-owned gas company.
