Entrada en operación del proyecto Sirius, que le daría al país 6 terapiés cúbicos de gas, podría darse hasta 2031

TL;DR

  • The Sirius project's operational start has been delayed from 2029 to 2030, with a potential further delay to 2031.
  • This delay threatens Colombia's goal of natural gas self-sufficiency as existing fields decline.
  • Acipet recommends classifying Sirius as a Strategic National Interest Project (Pines) to expedite licensing and resolve bottlenecks.
  • Prompt completion of 120 prior consultations is crucial for obtaining the environmental license and preventing further delays.
  • Acipet also advocates for similar Pines status for 'on-shore' gas projects and infrastructure projects vital for gas transport and regasification.
