Petrobras and Pluspetrol have successfully completed their first import of unconventional natural gas from Argentina's Vaca Muerta formation into Brazil, marking a significant milestone in regional energy cooperation and supply diversification
Petrobras Imports First Vaca Muerta Gas to Brazil via Bolivia[1]. The pilot shipment, totaling 100,000 cubic meters, was transported via pipeline from Argentina through Bolivia and into Brazil, underscoring the growing interconnectivity of South American gas networks.
The initiative is part of a broader strategy by Petrobras to diversify its supply sources and bolster Brazil's natural gas availability. The operation was executed under an agreement between the two companies and their subsidiaries, with Petrobras Operaciones S.A. (POSA) and Gas Bridge Comercializadora playing key roles. The gas, produced jointly by POSA and Pluspetrol, was transported through existing infrastructure, testing the commercial and logistical framework for future imports.
Angélica Laureano, Executive Director for Energy Transition and Sustainability at Petrobras, described the operation as a "significant milestone" facilitated by the integration of infrastructure, connecting Petrobras' own production in Argentina with the Brazilian market. She emphasized that the initiative opens new pathways for gas imports into Brazil, reinforcing Petrobras' commitment to expanding supply and fostering a sustainable natural gas market.
Petrobras maintains upstream operations in Argentina through POSA, which holds a 33.6% non-operated interest in the Río Neuquén field across the provinces of Río Neuquén and Río Negro. The production primarily comes from tight gas reservoirs in the Punta Rosada and Lajas formations, part of the broader Neuquén Basin that hosts the prolific Vaca Muerta play.
The pilot import highlights the potential for increased regional gas interconnectivity in South America, leveraging cross-border pipeline networks between Argentina, Bolivia, and Brazil. For Petrobras, the move supports its strategy to diversify supply sources and strengthen Brazil's natural gas availability amid efforts to boost domestic competitiveness and transition toward cleaner fuels.
