    Study Notes

    Unleashing Mexico's Energy Potential through the Historic Energy Reforms of 2013

    In December 2013, Mexico embarked on a landmark journey with its energy reforms, ushering in transformational changes aimed at promoting competition, increasing investment, and fostering sustainable development within the country’s energy sector. This groundbreaking legislation altered the landscape of Mexican energy policy after decades of government monopoly over hydrocarbon resources. Here we explore these compelling shifts that continue shaping Mexico's economic growth and global partnerships today.

    Before 2013 Reforms

    Mexico’s state oil company Petroleos Mexicanos (PEMEX) had been mandated since its creation during President Lázaro Cárdenas’ administration—in 1938—to control all aspects of oil exploration, production, refining, transportation, marketing, and sales without private participation. Similarly, electricity generation was exclusively under the jurisdiction of Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE), also founded by Cárdenas in 1937. Consequently, Mexico enjoyed relative energy security yet suffered from stagnant innovation and limited foreign investments due to the lack of market incentive mechanisms.

    Key Aspects of the Reforms

    The reforms impacted three main sectors: Hydrocarbons, Electricity Generation, and Natural Gas. Under the new regulations, PEMEX would now share control of Mexico's oil fields with international companies, while private firms could participate in natural gas extraction and distribution. In addition, private producers were allowed to offer power services starting from June 2014, challenging the historical dominance of CFE in electricity generation.

    These updates presented novel opportunities for expanding domestic energy infrastructure alongside stimulating direct foreign investment into Mexico's economy. With international partners backing up local projects, Mexican citizens benefited from enhanced accessibility to affordable energy sources, improved facilities, advanced technologies, and job prospects. Furthermore, Mexico's energy transition signaled its commitment towards reducing greenhouse emissions, addressing climate change concerns, and becoming more environmentally responsible.

    Challenges and Outcomes

    Implementation of this far-reaching agenda faced challenges such as redefining roles and responsibilities among stakeholders, managing capacity building needs across regulatory agencies, and establishing fair contractual terms between public institutions and multinationals. However, despite initial growing pains, Mexico has successfully attracted substantial capital inflows since the reforms' initiation and continues to foster mutually beneficial relationships with foreign investors, thereby diversifying its portfolio beyond traditional markets like the USA and Canada.

    For instance, the deepwater block Zama, discovered in September 2017 by Amberjack Resources (partnered with Talos Energy and Sierra Oil & Gas), is estimated to hold recoverable reserves of around 2 billion barrels equivalent. Private natural gas firm IEnova has expanded its pipeline network to transport fuel generated domestically and imported via the sea to the US border, significantly improving regional energy efficiency. Moreover, cleaner electricity produced by independent generators advances national electrification goals, consequently strengthening community links throughout Mexico.

    Conclusively, the progressive steps taken by the government of Mexico following the enactment of the historic 2013 energy reform have laid down solid foundations for future prosperity, contributing to domestic and global efforts toward achieving environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and economic competitiveness.
