Argentina, the eighth-largest nation in the world, is a South American nation. In comparison to other income sources, oil does not generate much money. Argentina has refineries to separate the crude oil that it buys from other significant oil-reserve nations. The largest oil refinery, La Plata, produces 189,000 barrels of oil daily. The second and third largest refineries, producing 110,000 and 105,500 barrels per day, respectively, are the Buenos Aires and Lujan de Cuyo refineries.
