Buenos Aires, Argentina – The administration of President Javier Milei has achieved a historic transformation in Argentina’s energy sector, marking a milestone in oil and gas production, particularly in the Vaca Muerta shale formation. According to a report from the Bolsa de Comercio de Rosario (BCR), 2025 is projected to reach the highest oil production of the century and a historic record for gas production in the country.

This impressive increase in production has been supported by the implementation of new energy transport infrastructure. The completion of the Perito Moreno Gas Pipeline and the reversal of the Gasoducto Norte not only facilitate domestic supply but also open up new and significant export opportunities to neighboring countries like Bolivia and Brazil.

The article highlights that the decrease in gas production in Bolivia presents a strategic opportunity for Argentina to consolidate its role as a leading energy exporter in the region. The positive results of these policies are already visible in the national macroeconomics, with Argentina’s energy balance recording its highest surplus in 35 years in 2025.

This strong performance has cemented the oil and petrochemical sector as the country’s second-largest exporter, underscoring the success of the Milei government’s free-market agenda. The push for production and investment in infrastructure is not only reactivating the economy but also positioning Argentina as a regional and international energy powerhouse.
