From the IMC Q& A:
Q50: Has the NDA been signed with Pemex yet?
Yes, it was signed in Q3'21.
Q51: If we got a commercial contract in Mexico, is it likely to be on a tolling basis rather than licensing mode, and would Freepoint Commodities be a probable partner? Would the Mexican government be happy with foreign companies investing in their refineries like this? The current direction of a lot of their policies seems to be the exact opposite - protectionism.
To be determined, but likely yes. In terms of partners, our preference would be a local partner, if possible, which would address the requirements of the current government.,
Q52: Regarding the project in Panama with power generators, would these end users be using an imported MSAR from other countries (e.g. Mexico, Ecuador), since I don't believe that Panama has its own operational refinery? Did this lead come from our partners at Energy & Petroleum Consultants?
Yes and yes.
