As part of the Gas Integration Project for Mercosur + Chile, developed by the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE) together with the Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean (CAF), the technical workshop “Lessons Learned from the First Argentine Gas Exports to Brazil with Bolivia as a Transit Country” was held.
The event brought together private sector representatives and regional experts, who shared experiences and proposals to strengthen gas integration in three key areas: gas quality and measurement across different markets, operational programming and coordination, and infrastructure development.
The workshop featured the participation of leading sector representatives, including: Oscar Claros (YPFB), Pablo Erias (TGN), Rodrigo Senne Dos Santos (MGAS), Javier Di Prisco (Tecpetrol), Tatiana Lemos (Edge), Roberto Schloesser (Tradener), Leandro Carbone (Refinor), and Marisa Basualdo (TotalEnergies).
During the opening session, Guido Maiulini, Head of Strategic Advisory at OLADE, emphasized that this technical and strategic dialogue “is a valuable opportunity to identify restrictions and advance the development of regulatory frameworks and transit infrastructure that enable greater integration.”
With this workshop, OLADE reinforces its role as a regional facilitator in building cooperation frameworks that foster more secure, efficient, and sustainable energy markets in Latin America and the Caribbean.
