Pemex Declares Force Majeure over Maya Crude from Pacific

Mexico's state-run oil company Pemex has declared force majeure over at least two cargoes of Maya crude to be loaded at its Salina Cruz terminal on the Pacific Coast, after a fire affected its largest refinery earlier this month, three sources told Reuters.

 

One of the affected cargoes was supposed to be delivered at the U.S. West Coast and another one was going to Japan, the sources said.

 

Pemex did not immediately answer a request for comment.
