Mexico is likely to move ahead with long term deep water oil exploration tenders in 2015, and delay tenders for shale and other oil fields. President Nieto's popularity has dropped to 40%, an all time low, reducing political capital. Other problems are staffing the agency that will put together the bid round, which will take time. The initial bids for 109 exploratory blocks and 60 production fields were earlier planned for 2015. Shallow water fields are likely to go first. Oil companies are expected to be choosier in making investments at the current oil price, yet retain interest in long term deep water oil exploration.

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.
