La Plata YPF refinery back to operations in 30-45 days

YPF CEO Miguel Galuccio announced that the company’s La Plata refinery will return to operations in 30-45 days after the fire that shut down the 188,000 barrel-per-day facility last week.

In a press conference, the head of the state-run energy giant also said that the company may have to increase imports from 10 to 15/16 per cent in order to reach domestic supply demands.

However, Galuccio affirmed that the company is analyzing no price hikes rejecting media versions that alleged rationing moves in gas provisions.
