Marval represents Edge Comercialização on pioneering Argentine gas export to São Paulo, Brazil

Marval O’Farrell Mairal has advised Edge Comercialização on a transaction enabling the import of Argentine natural gas from Vaca Muerta to São Paulo, supplied by multiple producers.

The transaction facilitates the export of natural gas by pipeline from the Neuquina basin to São Paulo, via Bolivia. Marval’s advice covered the drafting and negotiation of contracts, as well as regulatory matters related to the export and transportation of natural gas.

The firm also advised on Bolivia’s role as a transit country, alongside key tax and customs issues critical to the operation’s success.

The Marval team was led by partners Soledad Riera and Francisco Macías (Oil & Gas), Luciana Virgile (Tax), and Martín Vainstein (Litigation), and included associates Juan Martín Sanz, Nicolás Bontá, and Felipe Fernández.

Edge Comercialização’s achievement marks a step in the export of Argentine natural gas to the neighboring Brazilian market.
