The Argentine was quicker off the starting blocks and broke his opponent's serve, but Goffin soon rallied round and clinched the first set 7-5, narrowly avoiding a tie-break.
Berlocq collapsed completely in the second set, losing 6-1, but gave his European opponent a scare in the third set by surging into a 4-2 lead, only to lose his nerve and, subsequently, the match.
Goffin will take on Spain's Nicolas Almagro in the third round.
