    As quoted in the market news:

    Presenting a five-year business plan today, [CEO Miguel] Galuccio said the company is looking for the “keys to unlock” potential at Vaca Muerta and other fields through partnerships with local and foreign companies to reverse falling output.

    Galuccio is seeking to boost output at the mostly untapped 30,000 square-kilometer (11,600 square-mile) Vaca Muerta region in southern Argentina, which holds at least 23 billion barrels of oil in resources, according to a survey by Ryder Scott.
