Sinopec Argentina E&P is an oil and gas company in the San Jorge Gulf of Southern Argentina. It has about eight thousand wells in eight areas; in Mendoza, Chubut, and Santa Cruz and a head office in Buenos Aires. In his presentation, Adrián Pavesi, head of the automation team, described the company’s first steps with the PI System and their later Enterprise Agreement where the PI System was deployed in all of the company’s fields.
