Description
ABSTRACT of Presentation
The ongoing discussions around NAFTA are going to have economic and oil production implications for all countries involved. These will range from Canada’s record breaking imports of crude to the United States; Mexico’s growing demand for gasoline and the challenges of America’s refining system in between these two.
We’ll review abstract NAFTA issues such as Canada’s “proportionality agreement”; an overlooked footnote in the current NAFTA agreement and a sticking point moving ahead. The growing pains in Mexico; more opportunity to grow crude oil production in co-leased fields, but facing a lack of commercial fuel to support this growth. And we’ll challenge the road ahead for America and our increasing move into oil exports. The uncertainty may not be confined to oil prices, but the Administration that now has power over supply rather than demand.
