“Mexico expects to launch four more oil and gas auctions before the current president’s term concludes in November 2018, Energy Minister Pedro Joaquin Coldwell said at a conference on Thursday.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“The government had previously said three more tenders were planned, but Coldwell said a fourth would be a mix of fields including some deep water areas.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“The tender could also include shallow water fields as well as gas-rich shale areas, he said.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“A constitutional energy overhaul in 2013 paved the way for the auctions by ending the decades-long monopoly enjoyed by national oil company Petroleos Mexicanos, better known as Pemex.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“A champion of the energy opening, President Enrique Pena Nieto was elected in 2012 to a six-year term and is by law prohibited from seeking reelection”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“The front-runner to succeed Pena Nieto in Mexico’s 2018 election is Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, a vocal opponent of the oil opening who could put a halt to future auctions.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“Coldwell said bid terms for the next deep water oil auction should be published by the end of this month, with contracts awarded by early January.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

“An onshore oil auction covering 24 blocks will take place next week, following a shallow water tender last month.”<\/span><\/h4>\n
