YPF has advanced a major Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) export project into execution after securing both a 30-year export authorization and the Final Investment Decision (FID) by Southern Energy S.A. (SESA).
The authorization, granted by Argentina’s National Secretariat of Energy, provides the regulatory certainty required to finalize long-term off-take agreements and project financing. The FID confirms the financial commitment of project partners, marking a pivotal step toward full-scale development.
With these milestones achieved, the Bareboat Charter Agreement with GOLAR MK II CORPORATION is now active, enabling critical infrastructure deployment. YPF, holding a 25% indirect stake in SESA via Sur Inversiones Energéticas S.A.U., is positioned to capture long-term value from Argentina’s gas reserves and expand its footprint in the global LNG export market.
