Re: Acquisition of a Participation in the UTE Puesto Hernández Concession Contract
|
Dear Sirs:
The purpose of this letter is to comply with the requirements of Article 23 of Chapter VII of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Rules.
In that connection, please be advised that YPF S.A. (“YPF”), has acquired Petrobras Argentina S.A.’s 38.45% participation in the concession contract UTE Puesto Hernández executed between both companies for the exploitation of the Puesto Hernández area (the “Area”). The Area is an exploitation concession located in the Provinces of Neuquén and Mendoza. YPF is the holder of the concession until 2027, which is operated under the aforementioned UTE contract which expires on June 30, 2016 and will be anticipatorily terminated. YPF will own 100% of the participation in the Puesto Hernández area, becoming the operator of the concession. Puesto Hernández currently produces over 10,000 barrels a day of light crude oil (Medanito quality). The transaction was completed for the amount of US$ 40.7 million.
By becoming the operator of the Area, YPF will be able to accelerate its investment plans to optimize the Area’s production potential until 2027.
Yours faithfully,
Daniel González Casartelli
Market Relations Officer (Alternate)
YPF S.A.
