    It would be ironic if Repsol (Bolivia) set the export price to Argentina to incorporate the value of the Repsol asset stolen by the state in Argentina.

    There is only ONE reason why there is a growing demand for methane in The Dark Country and it’s NOT because your industry is making more items for internal and export sales.

    IT’S BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EXTRACT IT YOURSELVES YOU IDIOT!

    You have the world’s second largest fracking gas reserves and still have to import more and more gas from Bolivia.

    If I were you I would change your tag to BOZO, it more accurately describes your “abilities”.

    Bolivia makes Argentina escrow the U$ before shipment since they've been stuck with slow payment before.
    Plus this gas doesn't make it to the more populous, colder provinces where they really need it. THey'll still need to buy lots of LNG to keep BA warm and the Soy U$ is not keeping up with the price of oil.

    'British Gas (37%)'

    Doesn't KFC know that British Gas exports North Sea gas to the Falklands? Best she boycotts this outfit in Bolivia. Its a matter of principle... let her people freeze to death in the dark.....

    “to supply growing Argentine demand”

    Because Argentina a country with many rich resources, cannot even supply itself.

    Yet that's a positive for you.

    Fair enough, you dish out medals to people who said they were willing to fight in the Falklands, but didn't actually go anywhere within 1000 miles of them.

    Lol.
