(WO) – The Mexican Association of Hydrocarbons Companies (AMEXHI) has expressed support for the federal government’s gas strategy aimed at strengthening energy sovereignty, while emphasizing the need for improved investment conditions to advance oil and gas development.
The industry group said that enhancing competitiveness, regulatory certainty and physical security will be critical to attracting capital and accelerating upstream activity in Mexico. It noted that global competition for energy investment remains strong, with other jurisdictions implementing policies designed to draw capital, technology and operational expertise.
AMEXHI underscored that strengthening domestic capabilities will require a stable and predictable operating environment, enabling companies to commit to long-term projects and deploy advanced technologies across the value chain.
The association also reiterated its willingness to collaborate with authorities to support the country’s energy objectives, highlighting the private sector’s technical capacity to complement government efforts to increase production and improve energy security.
The discussion comes as Mexico continues to balance energy sovereignty goals with the need to sustain investment in its upstream sector, particularly as global markets tighten and demand for reliable supply grows.
AMEXHI said the upcoming National Oil Convention will provide a platform for continued dialogue between industry stakeholders and policymakers, with a focus on identifying solutions to strengthen the sector and support future development.
