（彭博社）“Vista Energy 是阿根廷三大页岩油生产商，它正在关注埃克森美孚公司出售的资产，因为它希望加速该国著名的 Vaca Muerta 项目的增长。
Vista 首席执行官 Miguel Galuccio 在周三的电话会议上表示：“xxon 拥有有趣的资产，是的，我们正在考虑这一点。”
Galuccio 表示，此类收购可能需要 Vista 发行债务。Galuccio 曾作为国营钻探公司 YPF SA 的负责人指导了 Vaca Muerta 的首次勘探工作。
Vista的页岩野心将得到总统哈维尔·米莱(Javier Milei)政府的帮助，这位自由主义者于12月上任，承诺在阿根廷严格控制的经济中释放自由市场，特别是在石油行业。
加卢西奥表示，“我们对拟议的改革持非常积极的看法”，他强调改革将如何禁止政府干预油价以压低国内汽油价格。
(Bloomberg) – Vista Energy, a top-three shale-oil producer in Argentina, is eyeing assets put up for sale by Exxon Mobil Corp. as it looks to accelerate growth in the country’s heralded Vaca Muerta formation.
“Exxon has interesting assets and, yes, we are looking at that,” Vista Chief Executive Officer Miguel Galuccio said during a conference call on Wednesday.
An acquisition of that kind may require Vista to issue debt, said Galuccio, who directed the first exploration efforts in the Vaca Muerta as head of state-run driller YPF SA.
Vista’s shale ambitions will be helped by the government of President Javier Milei, a libertarian who took office in December promising to unleash the free market in Argentina’s tightly-controlled economy, and especially in the oil industry.
“We have a very positive view of the proposed changes,” Galuccio said, highlighting how reforms would prohibit the government from meddling with oil prices to keep domestic pump prices low.
