Question
Catherine Ortiz from Davivienda asked for more details on Ecopetrol's asset disinvestment strategy, specifically questioning if it was related to comments from Colombia's president about potentially selling U.S. assets.
Answer
Julian Lemos, Corporate VP of New Businesses, clarified that the company continuously evaluates its entire asset portfolio. He explained that recent discussions centered on replicating successful divestment models within Colombia to boost investment in the domestic hydrocarbon sector, not on selling U.S. assets. He confirmed active processes are underway with private companies in Colombia but could not disclose specifics due to confidentiality.
