Flagged up: Bolivia is set to sign an export deal with Paraguay
Paraguay to sign up for Bolivian gas
Bolivia will sign an agreement today to export natural gas to Paraguay, an Energy Ministry official said.
The official, who was speaking to Reuters, did not provide details of timing or quantities.
Although Bolivia has been struggling to meet the demand for natural gas of neighbouring Argentina and Brazil, the official said that the Andean country is confident that hydrocarbons output will increase significantly next year.
He added the deal also included exports of liquefied petroleum gas.
