New Mexico is an “open access” state for natural gas utilities. Natural gas utilities under the jurisdiction of the New Mexico Public Utility Commission are required to provide non-discriminatory transportation of natural gas for New Mexico end users. Customers have the option to purchase natural gas from a producer, marketer, or broker of their choosing and have it transported by the local utility system.
