1 Mexican Energy Reform, The Case for a New Geophysical Data Market Rafael Alférez February 18st,

2 OUTLINE Mexico Hidrocarbons Facts Energy Reform (upstream) Oil and Gas Potential of Mexico New Oil and Gas model Creating Value through Exploration 2

3 OIL PRODUCTION Despite an increase in investment in exploration and extraction, Mexican oil production has declined from 3.4 million barrels per day in 2004 to 2.5 million in Investment in exploration and extraction (Billions of dollars) Oil Production (Million of barrels per day) Price of Mexican Crude Export Mix (Dollars per barrel) 3

4 NATURAL GAS Between 1997 and 2012, natural gas imports increased from 3% to 30% as a percentage of national consumption; this trend has deepened since 2008, due to the decrease of the price of natural gas in North America. 9,000 8,000 7,792 8,007 (100%) Million cubic feet per day 7,000 6,000 5,000 4,000 3,000 4,576 (100%) 4,467 (97%) Natural Gas Consumption Natural Gas Production 6,534 5,651 (70%) 2,356 (30%) 2,000 1,000-1,258 Natural Gas Imports 109 (3%) * 4

5 NEW OIL AND GAS MODEL For the first time since 1960, the Mexican oil and gas model embedded in article 27 was amended. The constitutional amendment was published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación the 21 of December of 2013, once 26 State Congresses voted it favorably (16 were needed). Ended the age of the state monopoly on oil & gas 6

6 WHAT IT WAS REFORMED CONSTITUTION Art. 25: - Introduces the concept of Productive Enterprises of the State. Art. 27: - Activities of Exploration and Production will be made by means of entitlements to: - Productive Enterprises of the State. - Private Companies. Art. 28: - Mexican fund of Petroleum was created for stabilization and development. (makes payments and manages government cash flows) 7

14 TIME FRAME Start Round Zero PEMEX submit to SENER fields of Its interest SENER and CNH resolves PEMEX proposals of round Zero Constitutional Reform (21/dec/2013) 120 days 90 days 180 days Adequate 26 secondary laws Round 1 + n 16

15 The image part with relationship ID rid8 was not found in the file. The image part with relationship ID rid7 was not found in the file. ROUND ZERO 1 Pemex will submit to the Ministry of Energy, the entitlement applications for the exploration areas and the production fields that it is able to operate. Pemex will maintain entitlements on: Exploration entitlements. Areas where has made commercial discovers or investments on exploration. Pemex has to submit an Exploration Plan for each of the entitlements (3-5 years period) Extraction entitlements. Pemex will maintain the rights on the field on production. (deadline 21 march) 2 The Ministry of Energy, with technical assistance of the National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH), shall review Pemex s request, and issue the corresponding resolution. (deadline 17 sept) 3 Once the resolution on the entitlements has been issued, Pemex may propose to the Ministry of Energy the migration of the allocated entitlements into new contracts. The Ministry of Energy with the technical assistant of the National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) will migrate the entitlements into contracts 17

16 E&P CONTRACTUAL FRAMEWORK 2 1 Selection of the areas Technical guidelines of the bidding rounds. Technical design of contracts. 4 3 Conducts the bidding rounds. Decides on the winning bids. Fiscal terms of contracts Mexican Petroleum Fund for Stabilization and Development makes payments and manages government cash flows. Technical management of contracts. Awards and signs the contracts on behalf of the Mexican State. 18

17 E&P REGULATORY FRAMEWORK Constitutional mandate Technical assistance to the Ministry of Energy Regulating the execution of geological and geophysical services applied to hydrocarbons exploration Authorizing exploration activities Collect, organize and manage the geological, geophysical and operational information of the country Conduct the bidding rounds. Award and sign the contracts Technical management of the contracts and entitlements Supervise the exploration and extraction plans Issue regulation regarding the E&P activities 19

18 SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT Upstream and downstream activities National Agency for Safety and Environment Regulate and supervise safety issues as well as the protection of the environment: installations, operations, disposals, Abandonment, among others 21

19 TRANSPARENCY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICIES Bidding rounds and their guidelines will be public. Transparency clauses will be included in oil and gas contracts. Full disclosure of all payments associated to oil and gas contracts. External audits to supervise cost recovery and accounting aspects. The reform mandates the establishment of legal mechanisms to prevent, investigate, identify and punish actions or omissions against the law, as well as acts of corruption in general in the energy sector. 23
