History and Formation
Established in 2005, Pampa Energía emerged as a private holding company with the objective of consolidating strategic assets in the energy sector.
The company’s formation involved entrepreneurs Marcelo Mindlin, Gustavo Mariani, Damián Mindlin and Ricardo Torres, who directed investments toward the acquisition of businesses in electricity generation, transmission and hydrocarbon exploration.
Its early years were marked by the acquisition of key assets that supported the development of a solid portfolio. Expansion in the electricity generation segment advanced rapidly, enabling increased market participation within Argentina.
Entry into the hydrocarbon sector represented a significant milestone, solidified by the acquisition of Petrolera Pampa in 2012. In 2016, the purchase of 67.2% of Petrobras Argentina substantially expanded operations, enabling greater integration between electricity and oil-related activities.
The company was listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange in 2006, and in the following decade, in 2016, the acquisition of Petrobras Argentina further strengthened its operational structure and expanded its presence in the energy market.
Business growth also led to its debut on the NYSE in 2009, under the ticker PAM. Between 2020 and 2024, the company invested in modernizing its power plants and expanding its wind generation assets.
In 2024, Pampa Energía announced an LNG export project of 11.5 million cubic meters per day, in partnership with Pan American Energy and Golar LNG, with operations expected to begin in 2027.
