Here is update on the Pemex new Grassroots Refinery & Coker project (I think?) – site selection is Tula Hildago (with backup site to be Salamanca if land isnt available).
The original sites for Pemex’s 7th & new Grassroots Refinery were Guatemala, or Panama. But is now scheduled for Mexico site (unless the article has the Tula & Salamanca expansions confused with the Grassroots expansion here).
I know the article is wrong about the reference to only 2 Pemex Expansions, there have been a number of upgrades at most of the six refineries including addition of 3 new delayed cokers now at Caderyeta, Madero & Minatitlan (recently completed/completing). The Salina Cruz, Tula (has existing Flexicoker there now) and Salamanca were also scheduled for some Distillate & Coker upgrading/additions as well.
