Santa Fe, though not an oil-producing province, demonstrates its competitiveness to meet the demands of the hydrocarbon industry by providing high-complexity goods and services. Based on a competitive productive framework and a sustained public-private articulation strategy, Santa Fe is advancing as a key player in the national energy chain. Over 350 companies from the province are already participating as suppliers in Vaca Muerta, in Neuquén province, coordinated through the Santa Fe Gas, Oil, and Mining Roundtable. This space is key to generating strategic links, promoting knowledge transfer, and strengthening the commercial intelligence of the sector. Gino Zavanella, director of the company Facorsa, highlighted the value of this articulation: "The Park demonstrates the productive integration between Santa Fe and Neuquén companies, and our ability to adapt to insert ourselves into the Vaca Muerta value chain." A concrete example of this process is the Rosario-based developer ZLT, which inaugurated the Vaca Muerta Industrial Park (PIVM), located in Añelo, a key area for energy production.
