Mexico's shift to becoming a net oil importer in March 2013 and the new oil law to attract foreign investment
12/12/2013
With global investment in U.S. oil and shale development, experts say Mexico's oil law will only remove the first impediment to foreign inestment in the Mexican oil industry. The urgency for the legislation comes at a time when Mexico's oil exports dropped from 1.37 million barrels a day to 0.9 million barrels a day by August 2013. As Mexico also imports products from U.S. oil refineries of 0.8 million barrels a day, Mexico was nearly a net oil importer by August 2013.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
