(Harbour Energy, 3.Dec.2024) — Harbour Energy is a major supplier of energy and one of Argentina’s top producers of natural gas. The UK-based company has been active in Argentina for over four decades and has a long-term operator partnership through France’s TotalEnergies.

In Argentina, Harbour is active in the Neuquén province in the central region of the Southern Cone country, as well as onshore and offshore Tierra del Fuego in the south of Argentina, according to documents on the UK company’s website.

Off the coast of Tierra del Fuego, Harbour has an interest in the CMA-1 (Cuenca Marina Austral 1) concession which forms the backbone of Argentina’s energy supply. Today, around 16% of Argentina’s gas is produced from the CMA-1 concession which includes the Carina, Aries, Vega Pléyade and other smaller fields.

Partners in the CMA-1 include operator TotalEnergies and Pan American Energy, which are developing the offshore Fénix field. Fénix is the latest incremental development project in the CMA-1 concession and is expected to deliver significant gas production for more than 15 years. Production started in Sep. 2024.

In the Neuquén province, Harbour has interests in the TotalEnergies-operated Aguada Pichana Este (APE) and San Roque concessions. 

In the APE, Harbour is producing gas from the conventional reservoirs and from the Vaca Muerta shale gas play. Likewise, development activities in APE are focused on the Vaca Muerta. 

In the San Roque, Harbour is currently producing from conventional plays and, together with its partners, is evaluating options to proceed with the development of the Vaca Muerta formation.
