Upstream focus on Mexico this week

Hi Reader,

Mexico’s energy reform has gained crucial momentum in the last year, with dozens of new exploration contracts awarded and key early development projects poised to get off the ground. The new rules have encouraged international players with deep-water experience to enter the region — a crucial step, proponents say, in helping Mexico and state oil company Pemex reverse a steep production decline.

This week, Upstream will bring you up to speed on the progress, challenges, and opportunities for an area that remains full of promise.

Topics include:

Energy reform under a new administration — what the president-elect and his key staff appointments could mean for the industry.
The ongoing role of oil regulator CNH and the future of bid rounds.
Closely watched wells, important appraisal activity and key deep-water wildcats.
Updates on Round 1 offshore developments under way.
Looking ahead to exploration and production — shallow water, deep-water and onshore.
The outlook for Pemex under new leadership.
Progress from the service sector as offshore activity continues a modest uptick
Updates for onshore acreage, shale projects and the migration of Pemex service contracts.
