Mexico’s energy future hinges on election outcome

Mexico's presidential election on 2 June comes at a time of declining crude and natural gas production and uncertainty over the country's transition to cleaner fuels and more reliable power generation. If Claudia Sheinbaum wins, as is widely expected, will she continue Lopez Obrador's policy of restricting private sector involvement in Mexico's energy industry? Why has Mexico's crude oil production fallen to its lowest level in 40 years? Will Mexico continue to push to reduce its dependence on refined product imports?

In this Oil Markets podcast episode, Jeff Mower, director of Americas oil news, is joined by energy reporter Sheky Espejo for a wide-ranging discussion on these topics and more.
