Mexico needs to do more to develop its local natural gas industry, according to a new analysis from oil and gas trade group Asociación Mexicana de Empresas de Hidrocarburos (Amexhi).
Amexhi members and researchers in a report, 2030 Mexico En Crecimiento, reviewed the pressing energy needs of the country for the remainder of the decade.
“Mexico is on the list of countries – and the only producing country – to have such a high level of dependency on one source for its natural gas,” researchers said. They pointed out that Mexico imports around 75% of its daily natural gas needs via pipeline from the United States.
