The Department of Distribution, in a joint effort
with Engineering, Basic Studies, Maintenance,
IT and SAS, succeeded in establishing an online
field operation monitor and control system (ArcGis
Online) within the management platform. The system
allows the company to monitor the inspections
and maintenance procedures performed to the
multi-purpose pipeline (preventive and corrective
maintenance), the invasions to the pipeline right-of-

(landslides), and the inspections and construction

the MINAE’s Office of Environmental Quality

awarded RECOPE a score of 95.65% in 2015
(“excellent management award”), cementing it within
the leading domestic companies in this field.
