The Whiptail Development Project is an offshore project located in the Stabroek Block, approximately 200 km off the coast of Guyana. The project involves the development of oil resources through up to 10 drill centers, 48 production and injection wells, subsea infrastructure and the new FPSO Jaguar. With an expected production capacity of approximately 250,000 barrels of oil per day, Whiptail aims to increase Guyana’s offshore oil production.

PEMEX is investing in constructing two new coker plants at the Tula refinery and Salina Cruz refinery, scheduled to go online in 2024, to phase out fuel oil production. The Salina Cruz cracking refinery, located in Oaxaca, Mexico, is a non-integrated cracking facility owned by Petroleos Mexicanos. It commenced operations in 1979 and boasts a Nelson Complexity Index (NCI) of 8.1. Works on the Salina Cruz unit began in 2022. The plant is expected to contribute to the elimination of fuel oil and the increased production of ultra-low sulfur gasoline and diesel at the refinery.

The Zuluf Water Treatment Plant is a water treatment facility located in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, approximately 6 km west of Tanajib Airport. The project involves the construction and operation of a plant for the treatment, degassing and filtration of water intended for water injection into oil wells. With a maximum capacity of 185,000 m³/day, the facility aims to support oil production and maintain well pressure as part of the Zuluf oilfield development.
