Te. Andes S.A. in Vaqueros, Salta, a contract was signed with the National Agency for Scientific and Technological Promotion (ANPCyT-FONTAR) to expand Cron.Ar.: a project aimed at generating weather data for industry and science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The signing took place between <strong>Dr. Marina Frunzi, representative of the National Ministry of Science, Technology, and Productive Innovation, and the President of the R&amp;D Productive Technology Center, La. Te. Andes S.A., Roberto Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The presentation and signing of the agreement were attended by local authorities from Vaqueros: the town\u2019s mayor, Mr. Daniel Moreno; municipal council members Tane Correa Da Souza, Noem\u00ed Quinteros, and Sergio \u00c1valos; and executives and researchers from La. Te. Andes and Geomap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The La. Te. Andes S.A. Productive Technology Center, located in the town of Vaqueros, Salta, is one of the most ambitious projects to emerge from Argentine science in recent years. <em>\u201cToday in Argentina, from Salta, we have a unique center for applied industrial sciences that extends throughout South America,\u201d<\/em> stated Mr. Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cUnlike many countries, which send samples separately for analysis to various laboratories and research centers around the world, we are now one of only 11 countries in the world with research reactors to have a comprehensive R&amp;D Productive Technology Center dedicated to geothermocronology.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main objective is to generate as much information as possible\u2014currently almost nonexistent\u2014regarding the time and temperature that affected geological processes in the Central Andes. This will allow for a more precise determination of the existence of hydrocarbons by establishing the temporal relationship between their generation and the formation of their \u201ccommercial trap,\u201d thereby drastically reducing exploration risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his presentation, the President of Te. Andes emphasized that<em> \u201cThis project is a brilliant idea from the Ministry of Science and Technology that we were able to implement and execute\u201d<\/em>. He thanked the Agency for the Promotion of Science and Technology and all the people who provided their support to achieve these objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6a82210f625aa&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/gallery\" class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a82210f63d29&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a82210f63d29\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"2422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lateandes.com\/late\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/late-firma_7.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lateandes.com\/late\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/late-firma_7.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.lateandes.com\/late\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/late-firma_7-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dr. Marina Frunzi, representative of the National Ministry of Science, Technology, and Productive Innovation, and Roberto Hern\u00e1ndez, B.A., President of the La.
