Earlier this month, another major milestone of Energy Reform in Mexico was reached when Andeavor successfully completed its first importation of fuel, via marine vessel, into Mexico through the Pemex Rosarito terminal. This first fuel delivery will be transported via Pemex Logistica pipelines, storage assets and terminals in the state of Baja California. This week, ProFuels (Andeavor’s wholesale marketer partner in Mexico) will deliver to stations in the local markets, including ARCO branded stations. Currently, two ARCO stations have been opened and supplied from the USA via trucks, which marks the beginning of growth to include an anticipated 200 to 400 ARCO® stations in Baja California and Sonora over the next several years.
Earlier this summer, Andeavor was awarded capacity in the Open Season for Northwest Mexico on the Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex) oil products pipelines and in storage terminals. This means that Andeavor has a unique capability to transport its products from the US - within the existing infrastructure of the country - to bring its fuel to the consumer.
At Andeavor, we are committed to operating in a manner that promotes the health and safety of our employees, customers and communities. To safely operate our transportation assets, we rely on industry best practices, internal policies and persistent evaluation and improvement.
