Mexican LNG Project Signs 15-Year Supply Deal with Macquarie

AMIGO LNG has signed a 15-year agreement to supply 0.6 MTPA of LNG to Macquarie Group starting in 2028, strengthening Mexico’s role in global LNG exports from its Guaymas project.

(P&GJ) — AMIGO LNG has signed a 15-year sale and purchase agreement (SPA) with Macquarie Group for liquefied natural gas supply from its planned Guaymas export project.

Under the contract, AMIGO LNG will deliver 0.6 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG to Macquarie’s Commodities and Global Markets business once its first liquefaction train begins operations, targeted for the second half of 2028.

The project, located in Sonora, is positioned to connect U.S. Permian Basin gas with Asia-Pacific and Latin American buyers through shorter shipping routes and competitive landed costs.

"It is a privilege to have Macquarie join our portfolio of LNG offtakers," said Dr. Muthu Chezhian, CEO of LNG Alliance, a partner in AMIGO LNG. "Their reputation as a trusted and innovative global energy player reinforces the strong fundamentals of our project and highlights the long-term value AMIGO LNG will bring to global buyers."

Michael Bennett, managing director in Macquarie’s Commodities and Global Markets unit, added: "LNG is a critical component of the global energy mix, providing a reliable and flexible fuel source. This agreement reflects our commitment to meeting the diverse energy needs of our clients worldwide and demonstrates the strength of our offering in this space."

AMIGO LNG is a joint venture between Texas-based Epcilon LNG and Singapore’s LNG Alliance. The company plans to deploy U.S. liquefaction technology and modern marine infrastructure to position Mexico as an emerging LNG export hub.
