Mexico's "Energy Sovereignty" Dos Bocas Oil Refinery Hit By Major Fire
One of Mexico's largest refineries, with a processing capacity of 340,000 barrels per day, appears to have suffered a fire in its coke storage area, marking the second incident in less than a month.
The Dos Bocas refinery, built by Pemex in the southeastern state of Tabasco, is the crown jewel of Mexico's push to reduce dependence on imported gasoline and diesel, especially from U.S. exporters in the Gulf of America. It cost about $21 billion to build and was a major energy project under former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

The protest, organized by the National Association of Transporters (ANTAC) and the National Front for the Rescue of the Mexican Countryside (FNRCM), included road blockades in at least 20 states and began around 7 a.m. CST, with disruptions expected to last several hours or longer in some areas.
The groups say the strike is in response to rising cargo crime, high diesel and operating costs, deteriorating road infrastructure and a lack of progress on agreements with the federal government related to highway security and extortion.
Major freight corridors affected
According to Mexican media reports, blockades were reported on several of Mexico's most important freight routes, including:
