Reuters exclusively reported that State energy company Pemex released large volumes of methane from an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico last year, with leaks recurring even after a United Nations agency flagged problems there to the Mexican government.
Market Impact
Reuters first reported in 2022 that researchers had spotted methane leaking from the platform, most likely because of an issue with a flare at the site. A Mexican senator then filed a criminal complaint that year against the Pemex CEO, the energy minister at that time, and the head of the environmental agency for the oil and gas sector, citing Reuters stories.
