Pemex discovers a natural gas field in the Gulf
The deepwater potential is 400 billion cubic feet of energy.
? Business 02/12/2011
Petroleos Mexicanos discovered a gas field in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, which has already been confirmed by the production tests by Pemex in the exploratory well Nen 1.
In a statement reported that the potential for this deposit is estimated 3P reserves (proved, probable and possible) estimated at 400 billion cubic feet of natural gas.
In the evaluation performed positively identified three sites that together represent a net thickness of about 50 meters of oil impregnated, so that estimate a production of 27 million cubic feet per day.
According to the explanation, the well Nen 1 is in Catemaco, 113 kilometers northwest of Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, and 45 miles east Lakach field.
The objective of the drilling of this well was to obtain information lithological, sedimentological and petrophysical the area, which had reported a history of producing gas wells Noxal, Lalail, Leek, and Piklis Lakach.
Pemex is positioned as the fifteenth natural gas producer worldwide and last year were obtained 1.2 million barrels a day.
According to estimates by the Secretary of Energy to generate electricity from natural gas will grow 2.2 percent on average between 2007 and 2015, resulting from the dependence that has been generated in some countries the fuel efficiency that represents and lower investment costs.
At the end of 2009 the world's known reserves of natural gas were estimated at 6 000 621 trillion cubic feet, of which Russia had 23.7 percent, Iran, Qatar 15.8 percent and 13.5 percent. Mexico at that time was located in the place 32.
Data contained in the World Energy Outlook study indicate that the future of natural gas is "brilliant", naming even that we are in a "golden age" for this resource.
Estimates suggest that global trade will double natural gas in the period 2011 to 2035 and more than a third of that increase is due to changes in the Chinese market
