According to MERCO VIAL S.A., the main goal of this project was to allow access of fuel barges to the YPF Terminal again, after 5 years without activity.

Under the dredging program, 1.3 million m³ of dredge material were removed, reaching the depth of 16 feet.

More than a technical work, it is a huge step for energy logistics and regional development,” MERCO VIAL S.A. concluded.
