No financial terms were disclosed by him and ne has not disclosed any other specifics regarding this joint venture.

YPF required funding for billions of dollars for running search project of unconventional oil and natural gas reserves. However Argentina’s decision of not paying $10 billion dollar amount has compelled other major oil companies to invest here in YPF funds for further working on finding sites for new projects. Spain's Grupo Respol says it is payable after Argentina confiscated Repsol's scheming stake in YPF in  last April.
