During an extraordinary session held Tuesday, Mexico’s National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH) announced the following changes to the so-called Round 3 upstream bidding processes:
These changes were confirmed by CNH yesterday to accommodate certain requests by Mexico’s Ministry of Energy earlier this month. However, the CNH Rounds (which to date have successfully awarded more than 100 hydrocarbons exploration and extraction contracts (CEEs), including several historic Pemex farmouts) are expected to resume when Mexico’s new administration has the chance to review the bidding processes.
In that respect, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (who just took office on December 1) recently insisted that hydrocarbon activities will continue to be a key component of Mexico’s energy strategy moving forward. According to public statements, new CNH Rounds will be called once production begins in CEEs that have been awarded in prior CNH Rounds. Pemex farmouts however, will continue in parallel.
We are closely monitoring the recent changes in the energy sector and will continue to keep our clients and friends apprised with the most relevant changes and implications in the energy sector. Feel free to reach out to us for more information.
