The raw materials trading company Trafigura managed the logistics for the export of 70,000 cubic meters of unconventional oil (shale oil), coming mainly from the developments of View in Dead Cow.
The operation was carried out this month from Post 3 in Puerto Galván, in the town of Bahía Blanca, destined for the USA.
“This new export not only reinforces Trafigura’s commitment to efficient and safe logistics, but also demonstrates how this service increases the export capacity of Bahía Blanca”, They stated from the international logistics company.
“By offering Vaca Muerta producers an additional export point to international markets, the company connects the oil fields with the port through a comprehensive solution,” added from Trafigura.

The work was carried out in coordination with the Bahía Blanca Port Management Consortium (CGPBB), successfully loading the ship “Safeen Strength”, an Aframax, almost 230 meters in length.
