We advised Oleoductos del Valle S.A. in the issuance of Notes for US$75,000,000
Bruchou & Funes de Rioja advised Oleoductos del Valle S.A and TCA Tanoira Cassagne advised Macro Securities S.A.U. as arranger and placement agent (the “Arranger”), Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.U., Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Argentina) S.A.U., Banco Comafi S.A. and Max Capital S.A. as placement agents (together, the “Placement Agents”), in the successful issuance of the Class 4 Notes for an amount of US$75,000,000, with an issue price of 106,01%, issued on June 14, 2024 , with a fixed rate of 3%, maturing on June 14, 2026.
The proceeds from the placement will be used mostly to partially finance infrastructure works, mainly related to the Duplicar Project, which consists of a project to expand Oldelval’s transportation capacity that includes: (i) the laying of approximately 525 km of pipelines along Rio Negro, La Pampa and Buenos Aires; (ii) the repowering of pumping stations; and (iii) the replacement of the section in the Bahía Blanca area. This will allow, once the work is completed, to increase the country’s oil exports between approximately 180,000 and 250,000 barrels/day.
