Singapore – Mayer Brown advised OQ Trading (OQT) on its 15-year LNG sale and purchase agreement (SPA) with LNG Alliance relating to the Amigo LNG project.

Amigo LNG is a pre-FID LNG export project led by Singapore-based LNG Alliance which envisages the development of an LNG liquefaction facility in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico. The Amigo LNG liquefaction facility is expected to re-export pipeline gas imported to Mexico from the United States. Deliveries of LNG from the project will commence in the second quarter of 2028.

OQT is the international energy and commodity trading arm of the Government of Oman.

Under the LNG SPA, approximately eight cargoes of LNG will be supplied annually on a free-on-board (FOB) basis from the first of two LNG trains of the Amigo LNG liquefaction terminal, which is expected to export a total of 7.8 MTPA of LNG produced from gas sourced from the Permian basin in the United States. The Amigo LNG project has a strategic position on the west coast of Mexico, giving it canal-free access to LNG markets in Asia.
