Open Season Process Conducted by Pemex Logística

The process to implement competitive conditions within the energy sector primarily fostered since the so-called energy reform of December 2013 is starting to evidence its first effects regarding the storage and transportation of refined oil products.

Pemex Logística (the logistics productive subsidiary company of Petróleos Mexicanos –the national oil company) is following the Administrative Provisions of General Character ("DACG" for its acronym in Spanish) set forth for open season and the rendering of services for pipeline transportation and storage of oil refined products and petrochemicals. The Energy Regulatory Commission ("CRE" for its acronym in Spanish) published said provisions on Jan. 12, 2016 in the Federal Official Gazette. Consequently, the above referenced available capacity open season has begun.
