MEXICO CITY - Mexico’s state-run oil company Pemex has been fighting for almost a year in court to suspend a rule issued by the previous government, requiring the nationwide sale of clean diesel to start this year, court documents seen by Reuters show.
But a district court granted Pemex legal protection in January by suspending enforcement of the rule across most of the country. The suspension limited mandatory sale of ULSD to about 9% of Mexico, including the major population centers of Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey as well as the northern border region.
Pemex argued in the documents that a lack of infrastructure to handle ULSD - which must have a maximum of just 15 parts per million of sulphur - could force Pemex to halt some operations at its domestic refineries. Mexico has been importing an increasing amount of U.S. fuel in recent years and Lopez Obrador has pledged to curb the country’s fuel reliance by building a new refinery.
