- Agua del Cajón: from gas to electricity
The Agua del Cajón combined-cycle plant in Neuquén uses gas from Capex’s own reserves. Its electrical connection delivers power to Argentina’s interconnected system. Extraction and generation are therefore linked stages within the group.

Its place in Capex
Capex combines hydrocarbon extraction and processing with electricity production. The connection between energy resources and industrial facilities is central to understanding its activities.
Economics of the whole company
Business economics · explained by La Plata
Customers, operations & revenue
Capex links oil and gas resources with processing and power generation. This integration connects feedstock with several commercial uses, but each stage has its own costs and investment needs. Liquids and electricity are distinct products with different buyers and marketing terms.
What shapes business performance
Field output, industrial availability and product prices need separate analysis. Higher extraction does not ensure more cash if it requires additional drilling or expansion. Renewable investment adds exposure to natural resources and sales contracts, different from a thermal plant’s fuel economics.
