據原油新聞8月2日消息稱,墨西哥國家電力公司周日表示,該公司已與加拿大TC能源公司達成協議,將在該國南部開發一條天然氣管道,并鞏固該公司在中部地區的合同。該協議似乎標志著能源公司與墨西哥之間數月的爭執之后,雙方罕見地達成了協議。墨西哥表示,這些公司受益于給納稅人帶來不公平負擔的合同。
南部的新管道將從墨西哥韋拉克魯斯州的塔克斯潘開始,通過海上與坎佩切州和塔巴斯科州的瑪雅坎管道相連。聯邦電力委員會(CFE)在一份聲明中表示:“該協議旨在解決墨西哥東南部和尤卡坦半島長期缺乏天然氣供應的問題。”
該協議還表示,由于擔心該項目會跨越當地社區認為神圣的土地,墨西哥將加大力度幫助TC能源公司完成塔克斯潘-圖拉輸油管道的建設。去年,總統Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador曾建議重新鋪設這條178英里(286公里)的輸油管道,但該公司并未說明將如何解決這一問題。
該公司表示:“CFE已與TC能源達成協議,將在解決社會沖突和完成塔克斯潘-圖拉管道方面發揮更積極的作用。”該公司還表示,將TC能源公司在墨西哥中部的合同捆綁在一起,將為該公司節省開支。

Mexico Strikes Pact with Canada’s TC Energy for Natural Gas Pipeline
Mexico's state power utility has struck a deal with Canada's TC Energy Corp to develop a natural gas pipeline in the country's south and consolidate the firm's contracts in the central region, the utility said on Sunday. The pact appeared to mark a rare moment of agreement after months of dispute between energy companies and Mexico, which said such firms had benefited from contracts that put an unfair burden on taxpayers.
The new pipeline in the south will start in Tuxpan in the Mexican state of Veracruz and run by sea to link with the Mayakan pipeline in the states of Campeche and Tabasco. "The agreement aims to solve a long-running problem of the lack of natural gas supply in the Mexican southeast and the Yucatan peninsula," the Comision Federal de Electricidad (CFE) said in a statement.
The pact also says Mexico will step up efforts to help TC Energy complete the Tuxpan-Tula pipeline after work stalled over concerns the project would cut across lands local communities consider sacred. Last year, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador had suggested re-routing the 178-mile (286-km) pipeline, but the utility did not say how it would resolve the matter.
"The CFE has agreed with TC Energy that it will take a more active role that will allow for solving social conflicts and completing the Tuxpan-Tula pipeline," it said. Bundling together together TC Energy's contracts in central Mexico would generate savings for the utility, it added.
