Neuquén capital is the provincial logistics and procurement hub for every Vaca Muerta operator. Service company warehouses, frac supply yards and transload facilities concentrate along the Ruta 7 and Ruta 22 corridors. For a regional frac sand supplier, Neuquén capital is both a transload hub and a commercial gateway. In-Basin Sand ships directly from Malargüe into Neuquén capital transload yards on paved routes.
Most frac supply chains transload sand through Neuquén capital before the last-mile truck leg to Añelo. Entre Ríos-origin sand arrives here via barge-and-truck; Río Negro-origin arrives via truck; In-Basin Sand arrives directly from Malargüe with the shortest possible road distance for any Argentine origin.
