Within the framework of the AOG Argentina Oil & Gas Expo held in Buenos Aires, the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE) organized the Natural Gas Stakeholders Dialogue in Latin America and the Caribbean, in collaboration with the Regional Association of Oil and Natural Gas Companies in Latin America and the Caribbean (ARPEL), the International Gas Union (IGU), and the Argentine Institute of Oil and Gas (IAPG).
The event brought together professionals from Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, and Colombia, who shared perspectives on the future of natural gas in the region.
The opening session featured Guido Maiulini, Head of Strategic Advisory at OLADE; Carlos Garibaldi, Executive Secretary of ARPEL; Luz Stella Murgas Maya, IGU Coordinator for Latin America and the Caribbean; and Ernesto López Anadón, President of IAPG.
Throughout the day, key topics were addressed, such as the perspectives of natural gas in the global energy context, its development and regional integration opportunities, and its strategic role in the energy transition process.
Through this dialogue, OLADE reaffirmed its commitment to creating spaces for regional coordination and cooperation that strengthen energy security, promote more resilient markets, and support countries in building an orderly, inclusive, and sustainable energy transition.
