W-E schematic cross-section. The Jurassic Cuyo and Lotena sedimentary sequences form an overpressured basin-centered gas system. It is semi-confined by regional evaporites underneath. The main source rock is the 1000 m thick type III Los Molles Formation. The main reservoirs are tight deltaic sandstones, fractured carbonates, and Tertiary sills.
