Argentina pasó de importar divisas por energía a ser exportador neto de gas y petróleo | El Cronista

👉 Four of the most important figures in the Argentine energy sector discuss the export potential of Vaca Muerta, the bottlenecks hindering its takeoff, and the conditions Argentina needs to meet to become a global gas and oil powerhouse. Participants: Nicolás Gadano, Consultant Cecilia Garibotti, Former Undersecretary of Energy Planning Gustavo Pérego, Director, ABECEB Raúl Bertero, President, CEARE Topics covered: 🔄 The Great Turnaround: Argentina has gone from being a net importer of energy foreign currency to a net exporter of gas and oil thanks to the development of Vaca Muerta, with each additional barrel produced destined directly for export. ⏳ The Closing Window: The LNG opportunity is real but limited. The United States and Canada will put 75 million tons annually on the market in the next two years, which will reduce the global imbalance caused by shortages in the short term. 🏗️ The Bottleneck: The lack of gas pipeline infrastructure is the reason why energy becomes more expensive every winter in Argentina, and investment in exports could be the structural solution. 📉 The Vaca Muerta Limit: More dollars won't solve poor macroeconomic management. The panel warns that no export sector, however large, can compensate for the fiscal deficit or institutional instability. 🤝 Fulfilling Contracts: Argentina's reputation as a reliable player is the most important asset for securing long-term contracts with Asia and Europe, in a global market that prioritizes security of supply over price. 📝 A panel on the opportunities and challenges of Argentina's energy export leap, focusing on infrastructure, regulatory frameworks, the role of the State, and the need to build institutional credibility to attract sustained investment. ✍🏻 We make economics easier for you. https://www.cronista.com/ 📲 Instagram:   / cronistacom   📲 Facebook:   / cronistacom   📲 Twitter:   / cronistacom   📲 TikTok:   / cronistacom   📲 LinkedIn:   / cronistacom
