There are
enough
molecules
to produce
more than
4 mmbd and
10 bcf.
Who is
going to
do this?
What we have done
www.cnh.gob.mx 14
For the first time ever Mexico’s reserves are within 10% of
Certifying companies’ numbers at both Asset and Region level for 1P and 2P&3P, respectively
What we have done
www.cnh.gob.mx 17
IOR-EOR Potential of Mexico is estimated for the first time
Production could increase by 1
million bpd
Proved reserves can be doubled or tripled
What we have done
www.cnh.gob.mx 18
Recovering an additional 10% would triple our 1P reserves.
Access to technology and human resources are crucial.
43 reservoirs in clastic / 85,611 mmb
86 reservoirs in carbonates/ 102,482 mmb
What we have done
www.cnh.gob.mx 19
• CNH defines Chicontepec as Tight oil
• Urge Pemex to use different Project management
• Recommend putting strong emphasis on Subsurface understanding: sedimentology and petrophysics
• Suggest considering new fracturing techniques: zipper frac, multifrac, etc
• Urge the use of IOR/EOR: water and gas (HC and CO2) injection
What we have done
www.cnh.gob.mx 20
Pemex E&P
Proved Probable Possible
• 2010: CNH’s first ruling: Give Pemex E&P a year to review numbers under new Reserves Guidelines
• 2011: CNH’s second ruling: Negative sanction, declaring contingent resources for Chicontepec, urge Pemex to consider IOR/EOR
• 2012: CNH’s third ruling: For the first time, Chicontepec’s numbers are within 10%. Possible reserves supported by IOR/EOR

By means of its regulation, CNH required: i. Insurance policy ii. BOP / Capping Stack iii. Certified Personnel iv. Proof of debris removal capabilities v. FEL process vi. Risk analysis/ Worst case scenario vii. Oil spill containment capabilities
Pemex E&P has sued CNH on a number of
occasions, resulting in extremely time-
consuming processes and diverting attention from
the real issue:

The Biggest Challenges
www.cnh.gob.mx 33
Importance of a Strong Upstream Regulator
Assessing capabilities and contracting
Post-Reform CNH
The Biggest Challenges
What should a strong upstream regulator do?
www.cnh.gob.mx 34
• PDO • Reserves • Seek maximium RF • Industrial Safety • Gas flaring • Measurement • Shale gas regulation • Data bases • Supporting SENER in hydrocarbon policy
definition • Supervision/ Inspection • Etc.
Regulatory agencies provide order, efficiency, transparency and security to energy resources exploitation
The Biggest Challenges
A strong regulator should also protect:
• People’s life and health
• Environment
• State’s investments and incomes
To do this, a strong regulator requires:
Regulations
Supervision
Research
Capability to apply regulations
To influence the industry to improve
To advise the Secretary of Energy

Final remarks
• Mexico has very large reserves and vast resources (both conventional and unconventional).
• Mexico has enough molecules to considerably increase reserves and bring back oil production to 3 or 4 mmbd and 10 bcfd.
• However, lack of planning and limited execution capabilities have made our production decline and our reserves decrease. Other countries are doing it right.
• It is obvious that we need more hands.
• The role of the upstream regulator is fundamental for the success of the Energy Reform; therefore, CNH requires a “Strong Law”, so it becomes a “strong regulator”, with a strong Minister and a strong Operator.
www.cnh.gob.mx 38
Final remarks
• CNH’s internal activities and attributions might be quite similar after the reform, but most likely strengthened.
• The complexity and variety of our resources demand ad-hoc contracting figures and specialized fiscal regimes.
• The best chapter in the history of our Industry is about to begin, and CNH will be a key player.
• Human resources, access to technology, financing and infrastructure development are crucial.
• We urgently need specialized human capital to face the post reform era.
• Mexico has the potential to become an energy hub!
