WTG

In addition to West Texas Gas’s Mako site, AP observed a large plume of gas escaping from tanks at a WTG compressor station about 15 miles away in the Sale Ranch oil field.

WTG said it inspected the last site and found no leak.

Her organization is funded by her own money, private donations and help from German nongovernmental organization WTG.

If a traveler gets sick, WTG will arrange for local medical care with an English-speaking escort, set up a place to quarantine and provide someone to stay with travelers while they recuperate.

Additionally, WTG will assist with rebooking flights, talking to doctors and submitting insurance claims after they return.
