HOUSTON, TEXAS (By Pietro D. Pitts, Energy Analytics Institute, 13.Apr.2025, Words: 1,365) — Argentina’s plans to significantly boost Vaca Muerta crude oil and natural gas production to support a massive 300% increase in energy exports from now until the end of the decade will depend in great part on the ability of state-owned YPF SA and the energy industry as a whole to solidify takeaway capacity.
Combined energy exports are expected to reach around $40bn by 2030 compared to just around $10bn in 2024. Of this amount, net energy exports to YPF are expected to amount to around $10bn compared to just over $2bn, respectively.
