In brief: Public tender opened for gas pipeline project

* Argentina’s President Alberto Fernández has confirmed that construction of the planned Néstor Kirchner natural gas pipeline will go ahead, increasing Argentina’s hydrocarbon transport capacity and increasing exports to neighbouring countries. Fernández said that a public tender will be opened for the US$40bn project, which he said would enable Argentina to transport 24m cubic metres of gas per day and will result in savings of US$1.45bn per year. The pipeline is viewed as necessary to reduce bottlenecks around the Vaca Muerta shale oil and gas fields in Neuquén, Patagonia.
