The oil and gas industry in Argentina has begun to view carbon credits as a key tool to address the challenges of the energy transition. According to recent reports, Argentina’s carbon market could generate more than USD 9 billion in revenue, driven by the country’s vast biodiversity and natural capacity for carbon capture.

In this context, companies in the sector are seeking mechanisms to reduce their carbon footprint —such as methane capture, energy efficiency, and offsetting through carbon credits— while facing increasing regulatory, investor, and social pressure to adapt to a low-emission economy.

At Génesis Sustentabilidad, we see this trend as a strong signal of the strategic value of carbon credits and environmental compensation instruments. We work alongside traditional sectors such as oil & gas to identify and structure carbon credit opportunities and to integrate decarbonization strategies that create both climate and natural capital value.
