LNG Freight Network Proposed for Major Roads in the Country

The project began in mid-2018, when the Argentinean company Galileo and the national oil company YPF began liquefying the dispersed gas from wells not connected to pipelines to turn it into LNG via Cryobox modules. from the mouth of the reactor. deposit

These are the road corridors which have for axis the national road 3, which connects Buenos Aires to Bahía Blanca, from where it leaves the road 22 in the direction of Neuquén and which extends until Comodoro Rivadavia, at the southern end of the province of Chubut.

It also covers the National Highway 5 that connects Buenos Aires to Santa Rosa and extends along the 35 and 143 routes to the city of Neuquén Añelo, in the heart of the Vaca Muerta formation; National Route 7 from Buenos Aires to Mendoza; and the national road 9 linking Rosario, Córdoba Tucumán and Salta.

From Rosario, another road corridor opens by roads 34 to Santiago del Estero and 11 that cross the cities of Santa Fe, Resistencia and Formosa, while the last blue corridor was drawn on the national road 14 of Zárate . He reaches the border town of Paso de los Libres.

In this phase, the first regional extension is open since the company's proposal is to supply LNG to service stations located on the road to the Brazilian city of Porto Alegre. The other two planned stages are those linking Mendoza to Santiago de Chile and the section of Añelo with Puerto Montt in the southern Transdanu.

"Our goal with the blue corridor proposal is to reduce the cost of fuel in transport, so that every kilometer traveled makes our country's products more competitive", explained the director of communications of Galileo, Julio Rodriguez.
