Latin American countries want to boost their oil sectors by offering blocks for exploration and production. The governments of Latin America open their doors to private investment in the oil industry, after years of monopolies.
The National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) held a new oil round, exceeding authorities’ expectations again. Pemex was the big winner of this auction, as the firm managed to win several areas in partnerships.
Pemex has expectations to make alliances and open seasons this year. However, the NOC started on the wrong foot this year, at least on the issue of pipeline and storage auctions.
The government created Energy Reform with the goal of opening the oil sector to free competition and encouraging offshore and onshore exploration and production in the country. Authorities have been successful in this process so far.
The National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) signed association agreements with important foreign firms to develop two blocks in Mexico’s Southeast Basin.
The National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) revealed the operators and non operators that will bid for the Round’s 35 offshore areas.
This Round’s oil volumes are three times higher than the resources allocated in any of the previous processes.
The Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP) published the economic conditions for the first auction of Round 3. The entity said that these regulations seek to encourage investment and development of oil projects in the country.
The NOC left an important system and seven terrestrial terminals outside the process, and included three additional ones.
The president of the Mexican Association of Hydrocarbon Companies (AMEXHI), Alberto de la Fuente, spoke about Energy Secretariat’s (Sener) plans to launch a pilot tender for unconventional fields and about Mexico’s potential in this sector.
