But could this affect Europe’s supply? Without a doubt The problem will begin in the European winter when gas prices will not only rise due to supply issues but could also be scarce. Europe is going to the world’s great gas producers to be able to buy the famous liquefied gas, the one that is transported by boat.
Argentina in fact has a history with Bolivian liquefied gas and today it still needs it. The regasification terminals in our country are already contracted by other countries such as Finland, which needs to enter NATO. In our lands beyond the political and economic repercussions, Vaca Muerta is loud again and even more so the new Néstor Kirchner gas pipeline. An energy and political project announced in 2021 by Minister Guzmán, being the only relevant work for the current government. The need to carry out this work will cause it to be done in record time. The government would control, through ENARSA (IEASA, in its entirety Integration Energética Sociedad Anónima and previously known as ENARSA,) the management of that gas pipeline and this generates a new political conflict. This work is necessary so as not to have to import gas and therefore not spend more dollars, which we never have left over.
The accusations continue around that the tenders are always won by them, and some speak of opening the game to China. But Mr. Paolo Rocca today said that he was late for the financing, but fast times make it expensive, the tubes are provided by TENARIS, with its famous tubes. Dismissing acts of corruption. A work that crosses 4 provinces is 563 kilometers between Neuquén and Saliquelo in the province of Buenos Aires, also crossing La Pampa and Rio Negro. The gas that is extracted has to be used and that is why it is necessary to guide it through the pipes and generate that Argentina manages to export.
The accusations regarding the sheet metal necessary for the assembly and the acts of corruption colored the tender with suspicions, it is a necessary work and requires specific materials. A tender that is going to be carried out in 4 sections, where no company can have more than 2 sections, the companies that could be in are Techint, Marcelo Mindlin’s companies or the already well-known electrical engineering. The most optimistic scenario would indicate that it would be finished by the middle of next year, but Judging by the judicial presentations of the opposition and the internal problems, it seems difficult to achieve. This gas pipeline was promoted from the peak of Vaca Muerta and has been in the pipeline for many years. The obvious question is why was it not done? And the answer still remains unanswered. A work of 200 million dollars that increases gas production between 25% and 30%.
But matter apart too the season of rates and subsidies will comea moment that every government wants to avoid, since it is pianta votes, but necessary. Segmentation is a possible solution but according to the numbers it is not solved in a single way. But the cold doesn’t know about all this, the cold doesn’t know about politics or economics, the cold makes you notice your economic condition even more and makes you remember the day you cast your vote, the cold doesn’t know but you do. When the cold is intense and the supply does not arrive, getting cold is a big problem, but if we follow the descending line, Many families do not have regular gas and need cylinders and it is becoming more expensive and if we continue further down, the people who are confined to live on the street feel the cold as a reminder of their precarious situation. None of us could imagine sleeping a single day on the street in the open with only a mattress and a blanket, and with frozen dreams and a heart that seems as if the cold has frozen and will stop beating at any moment. That is the most extreme cold, but it must be the one that shakes us and awakens the sleeping solidarity of Argentines, although it is always there when it is needed,
