The Southeast Gateway pipeline, a 1.3 billion ft3/d, 715 km natural gas pipeline, was constructed approximately 13% under the original cost estimate in less than three years from the project's final investment decision. Southeast Gateway was the first significant energy infrastructure project constructed under TC Energy's successful public-private partnership with the CFE.
“The successful completion of the Southeast Gateway pipeline reflects the unwavering commitment of our team, the CFE and the Ministry of Energy (SENER) to support Mexico’s expanding energy demand and future economic development,” said François Poirier, TC Energy’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
To advance Mexico’s economic growth and energy security, the Government of Mexico has announced plans to add approximately 8.5 GW of newly installed capacity from natural gas power plants. The Southeast Gateway pipeline, along with the Company’s other assets in Mexico, is positioned to play a vital role in supporting this initiative and the transition to lower-emission, more reliable energy sources.
