By the end of 2022, the Argentinian government released the results of the PlanGas.Ar’s fourth and fifth rounds. With the tender marked by a large competition, all incremental volumes offered were contracted and nearly all previous agreements were extended. As a result, the government could secure enough volumes for the new Tratayen-Salliqueló pipeline through 2028. The country will largely benefit from these results in the next few years. But is it enough for a sustainable long-term market expansion?
