La Vertiente Runway Upgrade – Overcoming Extreme Conditions with EBS ✈️
BG Bolivia engaged Soil Solutions® to deliver a high-performance solution for the La Vertiente runway, which was severely impacted by:
❌ Loose gravel & fine material loss, leading to surface degradation.
❌ Low visibility due to excessive dust, worsened by frequent high-altitude winds.
❌ Slippery conditions when wet, making the runway unsafe and unusable after rainfall.
❌ Operational disruptions, as adverse conditions limited plant accessibility.
The Soil Solutions Approach
✔ EBS Surface Seal Application – Provided a stable, all-weather surface that eliminated dust and prevented material loss.
✔ Increased Skid Resistance – Ensured safe landings and takeoffs, even in wet conditions.
✔ Dust Suppression – Improved pilot visibility and reduced operational limitations due to high winds.
✔ Enhanced Durability & Reduced Maintenance – Created a long-lasting, erosion-resistant runway that minimized upkeep costs.
Results & Long-Term Benefits
✅ Uninterrupted runway access, regardless of weather conditions.
✅ Safer operations, protecting aircraft and personnel.
✅ Cost-effective solution, eliminating the need for frequent grading or repairs.
