Argentina Executive Brief — June 2025 Edition

Argentina’s Vaca Muerta shale basin, once hailed as Latin America’s premier energy investment destination, is facing a strategic retreat. Energy giants like Petronas, ExxonMobil, and Equinor are scaling back or exiting altogether, signaling a turning point in the region’s oil and gas landscape.
