（彭博社）阿根廷最大的能源公司高管表示，阿根廷蓬勃发展的页岩油气行业将不会受到即将到来的选举后政治和政策制定的任何剧烈波动的影响。

无论实施更广泛的政策组合，下一届政府都将继续支持瓦卡穆尔塔页岩矿区的生产。这是国有顶级钻探公司 YPF SA 和 Pampa Energia SA 以及页岩气处理和运输公司 TGS SA 在本周的财报电话会议上一致认为的。

阿根廷将在十月举行总统选举，周日还将举行关键的初选。新政府可能会做出彻底的经济改革，试图让这个陷入困境、资源丰富的国家重回正轨。

YPF 财务主管亚历杭德罗·卢 (Alejandro Lew) 周五表示，“就选举后的政策而言，我们预计它将继续支持我们的行业。”

瓦卡穆尔塔项目对于改善阿根廷经济至关重要，因为它将减少对天然气进口的依赖并促进原油出口。随着管道瓶颈的消除，巴塔哥尼亚的油田今年获得了真正的动力，目前产量约为 64 万桶/日。

(Bloomberg) – Argentina’s burgeoning shale oil and gas industry will be shielded from any violent swings in politics and policymaking after upcoming elections, according to executives at the nation’s biggest energy companies.

Whatever broader policy mix is implemented, the next government will continue to back production in shale patch Vaca Muerta. That was the unanimous opinion of top drillers state-run YPF SA and Pampa Energia SA, and TGS SA, which conditions and transports shale gas, on earnings calls this week.

Argentines vote in presidential elections in October, as well as a key primary vote on Sunday. The new administration could make sweeping economic changes as it tries to get the struggling, resource-rich country back on track.

“In terms of policy after the elections, we would expect it to remain supportive for our sector,” YPF’s head of finance Alejandro Lew said Friday.

Vaca Muerta is vital to improving Argentina’s economy because it will cut a reliance on natural gas imports and boost crude oil exports. The formation in Patagonia has gained real momentum this year as pipeline bottlenecks clear, and it now produces about the equivalent of 640,000 bpd.
