-------------------------------
Comodoro Rivadavia is a city in the Patagonic province of Chubut in southern Argentina, located on the Gulf of San Jorge, an inlet of the Atlantic Ocean, at the foot of the Cerro Chenque mountain. It is often referred to simply as Comodoro. It has a population of 137,061 inhabitants as of the 2001 census [INDEC].

The city was at one time the capital of Comodoro Rivadavia Territory which existed from 1946 to 1957. The territory was a part of Chubut before and after its creation. The city is now capital of the Escalante Department.

Comodoro Rivadavia is a commercial and transportation center of the surrounding region, the largest city of Chubut and is important as the export point for a leading Argentine petroleum district. A 1,770 km pipeline conveys natural gas from Comodoro Rivadavia to Buenos Aires. The city is modern, with the air of an oil-country boomtown.

Founded by decree on 23 February 1901 as a port for the inland settlement of Sarmiento, the first settler was Francisco Pietrobelli. Early settlers included Boers escaping British rule in South Africa. The town was named in honour of shipping minister Mart�n Rivadavia, a proponent of the development of southern Argentina. It has been prosperous since 1907, when a drilling crew searching for water struck oil at a depth of 540 m.

Oil has begun to reduce in quantity but the area has been turning its attention to wind power. Windmills on Cerro Chenque and surrounding hills comprise South America's largest wind farm and provide 20% of Comodoro's energy needs.

The city is the home of the main faculty of the Universidad Nacional de la Patagonia San Juan Bosco. The Cathedral is the seat of the Diocese of Comodoro Rivadavia, of which the Bishop is, since 2005, Virginio Domingo Bressanelli. The Cathedral is dedicated to San Juan Bosco, the only cathedral in the world dedicated to the founder of the Salesian Order. It was inaugurated in 1979 although the crypt had been dedicated in 1949.

Playa Costanera is the city's beach. Rada Tilly is a beach resort and now suburb 12 km south of Comodoro. The National Museum of Petroleum is located in the General Mosconi district 3 km north of central Comodoro. It was opened in 1987 by the state-owned oil company YPF, which was later privatized (see Repsol YPF).

Comodoro Rivadavia's airport (IATA: CRD, ICAO: SAVC) is located 17 km from the city center (at 45�47? S 67�28? W), with daily flights to Buenos Aires and to other cities in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego.
