TURBODUCTO AIJCH Project
Modernization of the Jet-A1 fuel supply system for the Jorge Chávez International Airport (AIJCH).
1. Context and Opportunity
Jorge Chávez International Airport is Peru's main air hub. Currently, fuel supply relies on tanker trucks, creating inefficiencies, security risks, and unnecessary CO2 emissions.
- Growing Demand: Projected consumption from 1MM to ~2MM gallons/day (2025-2051).
- Modernization Mandate: Critical need to migrate to a dedicated pipeline system to ensure operational continuity.
- Strategic Alliance: Structured by Thomas Consulting Group and operated by PANMIDCO, with key agreements with LAP, Petroperú, and Exolum.
2. Technical Solution
Physical Infrastructure
Construction of a 2 km dedicated pipeline connecting the TDP Terminal (Callao) with the new AIJCH Fuel Plant. Uses Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) technology to minimize environmental impact and avoid open trenches under the Rímac River.
Operational Impact
- • Elimination of +30,000 tanker truck trips/year.
- • Reduction of 7,000 tons of CO2 annually.
- • Greater safety and reliability in supply (Jet-A1).
3. The Digital Twin
To ensure full transparency for investors and regulatory compliance, Turboducto AIJCH will implement a state-of-the-art Digital Twin. This hybrid Hardware and Software system acts as the source of truth for the financial ecosystem.
IoT Hardware
Certified industrial-grade flow sensors installed directly on pipeline transfer valves. They measure exact volume ("fuel pass-through") in real-time.
Decentralized Oracle
Sensor data is securely transmitted to an Oracle. This acts as a bridge, cryptographically validating physical world data before sending it to the blockchain.
Blockchain Reporting
Transported volume is immutably recorded on-chain. This automatically triggers Dividend Distribution Smart Contracts based on actual reported flow.
