墨西哥CRE首次批准私人石油产品管道

    中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯8月5日墨西哥城报道，墨西哥能源管理委员会(CRE)日前首次批准了一家私人公司通过管道运输精制石油产品，此举是提高墨西哥国内燃料市场效率的关键一步。

    CRE上周五晚些时候向墨西哥金融集团Invex麾下的基础设施子公司发放了安装和运营塔金管道系统（Tajin pipeline system）的许可证。塔金管道系统将把位于韦拉克鲁斯州的图斯潘港与大墨西哥城地区连接起来。

    埃克森美孚公司麾下墨西哥燃料市场总经理卡洛斯•里瓦斯早些时候曾向标普全球普氏能源咨询记者表示，这家美国最大能源公司曾是这个项目的主要承购商之一。

    里瓦斯说，2019年上半年，一旦塔金管道系统一期工程完成，埃克森美孚公司将向大墨西哥城周边地区供应燃料。他说，到那时，Invex将在图斯潘港和墨西哥山谷分别安装石油产品储罐，最初通过卡车运输精制石油产品，然后在未来18个月到3年时间里，一个管道管道系统将把这两个地点连接起来。

    Mexico's CRE approves first permit for private oil products pipeline

    Mexico's Energy Regulatory Commission or CRE has granted the country's first permit to a

    private company to transport refined products via pipeline, a key step towards enhancing

    efficiency in the domestic fuel market.

    CRE late Friday granted the infrastructure subsidiary of Mexican financial group Invex a

    permit to install and operate the Tajin pipeline system, which will connect Tuxpan port in

    Veracruz to the greater Mexico City region.

    ExxonMobil Mexico's general manager for fuel markets, Carlos Rivas, had earlier told S&P

    Global Platts that the US energy company was one of the project's main offtakers.

    Rivas said ExxonMobil would supply fuel to the region surrounding Mexico City in the first

    half of 2019 once Tajin's first phase was completed. By then, Invex is due to have installed

    storage tanks at Tuxpan port and in the Valley of Mexico, moving refined products initially

    via truck, with a pipeline system to follow over the next 18 months to three years to

    connect the two locations, he said.
