Technical Director of Argentine Eficoal company Aldo Damonte said
that in contrast to all the other countries, where gas-filling is
not allowed under pressure above 200atm, some Armenian gas-filling
stations fill gas under pressure of 300atm.

Meanwhile, the law prohibiting gas-filling under pressure above
200atm was adopted in Armenia already in 2008, however, almost all
gas-filling stations violate this law, as currently it is impossible
to implement control over this process in the country. "The system,
by which Armenia’s gas-filling stations operate now, was changed in
Argentina 20 years ago," Aldo Damonte told journalists in Yerevan.

The Argentine specialist noted that in his country a new program
is applied, which allows controlling the gas-filling process at all
stations of the country.

According to Armenian expert Arthur Kazaryan, the introduction of this
program will be offered to the Armenian government in the near future.

The program’s installation in a gas-filling station will cost $2600.
