YPF transportará combustible en camión a GNC
November 10, 2022. Scania Argentina managed, together with YPF S.A. and Copparoni S.A., the necessary authorizations for a truck powered by compressed natural gas (CNG) to operate in the refineries and distribute fuel in the service stations of the state oil company. After an extensive process, the G410 6×2 model of the Green Efficiency line became the first CNG unit to serve the hazardous cargo segment.
“It is a pride to have one of the first CNG trucks that will supply fuel and also to have been chosen by YPF and Scania for this strategic alliance,” said Raúl Copparoni, head of the company that, in addition to carrying out the logistics for the transport of fuel on the Atlantic Coast, it also carries out general cargo and international transport from its base in the province of Mendoza.
“Estamos celebrando el inicio de una nueva etapa: el primer camión de GNC homologado para el transporte de combustible. Esperamos y confiamos que este sea un modelo a seguir por otras empresas que realizan esta actividad”, comentó Guillermo Gaillour, Gerente de la Región Pampeana, que cuenta con sucursales en Mar del Plata, Trenque Lauquen, Olavarría y Bahía Blanca. .
Argentina tiene una red de casi 2.000 estaciones de servicio que venden GNC, de las cuales 500 son YPF. De esta forma, la petrolera argentina es uno de los principales proveedores en la demanda de este combustible para la propulsión de vehículos.
