Mexico Upstream Fiscal and Regulatory Guide
Summary
The administration of President Lopez Obrador is expected to clarify to foreign investors whether it intends to close the door on international investments in the oil and gas sector after in December 2018 it cancelled new licensing rounds until at least 2022. In the meanwhile, Congress has recently modified some articles of the Hydrocarbons Revenue Law reducing Pemex’s profit sharing duty from the current 65% to 58% in 2020 and then to 54% in 2021.
Reducing the profit sharing duty may help Pemex to obtain liquidity and fund its obligations currently jeopardized by negative free cash flow and high debt. With no planned licensing rounds, service contracts migrations, and farm-outs, the government is looking to rely on Pemex for upstream development. Pemex offers new integrated service contracts to support development, but it will retain operatorship and contractors will receive a cash fee based on production.
