A reliable network,
monitored 24 hours a day.
Safety is a top priority for Gaznat. Every meter of pipe is inspected, maintained and upgraded to the highest standards. The network is constantly monitored by our surveillance center, and inspections are carried out every two weeks.
Our preventive maintenance program includes:
- Aerial inspection by helicopter every two weeks
- Control using drones and ground sensors
- Systematic reinforcement of sensitive areas (crossings, embankments, construction sites)
Controls and alerts
Gaznat applies and anticipates the measures defined by the Swiss Confederation in the event of tension on the gas network. Gradual alert protocols guarantee continuity of service, while reducing consumption when necessary.

When gas runs out
The four levels of action in the event of a gas shortage.
In the event of a shortage, four progressive actions are implemented to guarantee priority supply: a call for savings, fuel switching, administrative measures and imposed restrictions on use. These steps are designed to preserve essential uses and network security.
Environmental responsibility
Taking concrete action to reduce the impact of our activity.
Gaznat integrates sustainability at every stage: low-footprint monitoring technologies, decarbonization pilot projects, voluntary emissions offsetting and a strong commitment to soil conservation when building new infrastructures.
The infrastructure that carries our energy.
