THE PORT OF ENTRY
FOR LPG IN CHILE

29 years delivering clean energy for the country.

Energy for life

Since 1994, Gasmar has been importing, unloading, storing and dispatching quality LPG. As of 2023, our business model changed and we adapted to the market requirements, no longer importing, but rather providing unloading, storage and logistics services.

The company has the largest LPG terminal on the Pacific coast of South America located in Quintero Bay, and we have already started operations at the new terminal in Mejillones.

MISSION

Providing a reliable terminal service for receiving and storing LPG, as part of an efficient and sustainable logistic supply chain for clean fuels.

PROCESSES: FOCUSED ON PREVENTION

Gasmar’s day-to-day work is closely related to risk prevention. This involves the permanent inspection of infrastructure and equipment, the verification of each unit’s condition and the permanent training of its workers in the management of emergency situations.

UNLOADING AT THE DOCKS

At least once a month, Gasmar receives a ship loaded with LPG at third-party port facilities, just in front of its Quintero plant. About 85% of the product that Gasmar currently receives comes from Houston, Texas, United States.

Distribution

Gasmar transports 85% of the LPG via pipeline to Santiago, and 15% in gas tanker trucks, amounting to about 550,000 tonnes each year. This is the equivalent of filling approximately 35 million gas cylinders each season.

Storage

With a storage capacity of 145,000 m³ in Quintero and 20,000 m³ in Mejillones (under construction), Gasmar manages a permanent stock of LPG to serve Chile’s needs.

Safety

Gasmar is a safe logistical operation with limited risks, given the nature of its operations, i.e., the reception, storage and transportation of LPG. There are no production processes.

The uses of LPG

This clean fuel is mainly used for residential purposes such as cooking, hot water and heating. On a smaller scale, LPG is also used in industrial processes and electricity generation, and it is an excellent complement to renewable energies.
