Personnel from the State Guard, the Navy, and Pemex detected illegal connections to pipelines along the Tampico-Mante highway; the area was secured to facilitate sealing operations.


A joint operation involving the State Guard, the Secretariat of the Navy, and security personnel from Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex) led to the detection of two clandestine fuel taps in the municipality of Altamira.


The incident occurred near kilometer 62 of Federal Highway 80 (Tampico-Mante), in the vicinity of the Santa Gertrudis communal land, along the stretch immediately preceding Estación Manuel.

During the deployment, state and federal forces established a security perimeter to safeguard the infrastructure and facilitate the work of specialized technicians.


Pemex technical personnel proceeded to neutralize and seal the pipeline connections to prevent environmental hazards or explosions in the rural area.


Following an inspection of the area, authorities reported that no individuals were found at the site; consequently, no arrests were made in connection with this incident.

    Why are Trump's approval ratings down?

    Remember he said the Iran war, was only going to last a few days.
    The news reported $26 Billion so far and the tab keeps growing as the ships sit in the Sea, with Military on standby..while a cease fire present.

  5. Pemex should/would have pressure sensors to alert to line pressure changes (leaks) and flow meters to check volume (x liters left point A and it all arrived at point B).

    To leave this tap so clean would have needed the line shut down. An inside job.
