Workforce Development
Our project is expected to contribute approximately 0.25% to Mexico’s annual GDP during the construction phase, underlining the significant value we will bring to the national economy. With the anticipated creation of direct and indirect jobs, we are fueling economic growth that will have lasting effects.
These jobs are not just opportunities; they will support families and future generations. At Mexico Pacific, we are excited about the opportunity to develop a skilled workforce in Sonora and Chihuahua. In particular through our partnership with Cámara Mexicana de la Industria de la Construccion (CMIC), which was announced in 2024, Mexico Pacific will support workforce training and apprenticeship programs to ensure local communities have ongoing opportunities to participate in the development of this important infrastructure project.
An Unprecedented Commitment to Communities in Northern Mexico
Our commitment to the communities in which we will develop and operate infrastructure goes well beyond economic metrics. We are proud to have an unrelenting focus on social progress and environmental stewardship.
One of our most important goals is to build lasting relationships and contribute to thriving communities in northern Mexico. Together, we are working towards a brighter future. We prioritize community engagement and having open and transparent communication with our stakeholders.
In June 2024, Mexico Pacific announced an agreement with Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE), Mexico’s state-owned natural gas and power utility, pursuant to which Mexico Pacific will make unprecedented social investments in the Mexican states of Sonora and Chihuahua.
The needs and priorities of the communities were evaluated through extensive consultations and field studies to ensure maximum benefit to families across northern Mexico. Informed by these community consultations, we will make impactful social investments in six key areas: community infrastructure, skills development, education, security and peace, environment, and health.
Our work has already begun. Mexico Pacific is supporting long-term town planning and development in the Municipality of Pitiquito and the Community of Puerto Libertad. We have donated land for the development of a new elementary school which will open to local children, and we are supporting the development of community healthcare and other facilities to ensure a sustainable socio-economic outlook for Puerto Libertad.
We are proud to be implementing this social investment framework with the support of CFE and the state governments of Sonora and Chihuahua. We are equally excited about having a positive impact and enhancing the lives of current and future generations in northern Mexico.
Developing Large-Scale Infrastructure Projects the Right Way
At Mexico Pacific, we are proud to have designed our Saguaro Energía LNG facility and the associated Sierra Madre Pipeline with the utmost care. Our approach goes well beyond regulatory requirements; it’s about making choices that reflect our deepest commitment to sustainability and ethical business practices.
Mexico Pacific is proud to have a constant eye toward not just the economic, but also the social and environmental benefits that can come from infrastructure development. Mexico Pacific has consciously designed its LNG facility and its pipeline to avoid population centers, indigenous communities, and environmentally protected areas – a first for large-scale infrastructure development in Mexico. This is one of the most important environmentally and socially conscious infrastructure projects in Mexico’s history.
The Saguaro Energía LNG facility itself will be a model of sustainability. Self-sufficient in its operations, it does not draw power, housing, or other resources away from local communities. Positioned several kilometers from residential and environmentally protected areas, the facility exemplifies our commitment to minimizing disruption to local life.
Our environmental consciousness also extends to our shipping practices in the Sea of Cortez. We have designed our operations and routes to avoid protected areas by at least 4 kilometers, leveraging existing shipping routes to minimize our environmental footprint. The Sea of Cortez is 700 times wider than the Calcasieu River in Louisiana, which allows us to operate in a manner that is both safe and environmentally responsible.
At Mexico Pacific, we believe that true progress is measured by the positive impact we create for people and the planet. Through careful planning, responsible innovation, and unwavering commitment to our values, we are building more than just infrastructure – we are building a legacy of sustainability, equity, and respect.
