Dos Bocas Refinery Rises from the Depths in Record Time
Addressing the nation, President López Obrador reiterates his commitment to tackling crime and protecting the lives of the Mexican people.

In an exciting development, the Dos Bocas refinery in Tabasco has commenced loading with crude oil, according to President López Obrador. He enthusiastically projected that by the start of 2024, the refinery would have the capacity to process a staggering 340 thousand barrels of crude oil. With a touch of pride, he described the Dos Bocas refinery as a unique masterpiece, constructed in record time.

Reflecting on the past four decades, the President lamented the absence of refinery construction in Mexico. Previous administrations focused solely on extracting and selling crude oil, leading the nation to become a net importer of gasoline. The decline in oil production by half over 15 years was a dire consequence of this neglect.
