Estación de Servicio Shell Comodoro Rivadavia Aeropuerto

Shell’s airport station sits at the gateway to serious Patagonia overlanding, with full diesel and gasoline pumps, tire service bay, and a small shop stocked with basics. The attendants know the rigs heading to Peninsula Valdés and beyond — they’ll check your tire pressure and oil without being asked. Clean restrooms and hot coffee make this a solid final civilized stop.

Open 24 hours, this station sees the early morning exodus of overlanders heading to Puerto Pirámides or pushing south on Ruta 3. The tire service bay can handle basic repairs and has an air compressor rated for larger tires. Stock up on snacks here — it’s a long stretch to the next real resupply.
