Spanish term or phrase: aeroplanta
This is apparently from Argentina.

It's just an excel spreadsheet. Apparently has something to do with the status of various claims for payments, something about the oil & gas industry but the term does not seem to be specific to oil & gas but rather has to do with airports. It's talking about fees, interests, and fines and the word in the box I don't understand is **Aeroplanta.**

There is really no context - it's just a term in a cell on a spreadsheet.

Is there someone familiar with Argentinean who can help?

Aviation Fueling Station / Aviation Fuel Farm


Explanation:
Son las instalaciones donde se almacena el combustible para repostar las aeronaves. El repostaje se realiza, bien por medio de camiones cisterna que llenan sus tanque en la aeroplanta para después llenar los tanques de los aviones en el aeropuerto o bien el combustible es conducido por medio de conductos hasta unas estaciones fijas de repostaje que están instaladas en la línea de vuelo, donde se aparcan las aeronaves.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Jacob Z. (X): This seems correct, perhaps given the asker's lack of context "station" would be best to account for variations in size, e.g.: http://www.aeroespacio.com.ar/index.php/aviacion-general/avi...

Reference information:
In addition to Jairo's reference, here is another, which seems to suggest a "facility" for "fuel distribution", so I thought perhaps of an [airport] fuel distribution (filling) station/facility/installation, although it may well encompass aircraft maintenance and servicing? I don't know.
