Crude Oil Production   

During the fourth quarter of 2006, crude oil production averaged 3,104 Mbd, 6% less than the 3,306 Mbd average for the fourth quarter of 2005.

 

Despite an 11% decrease in heavy crude oil production, light and extra-light crude oil production increased by 4% and by18%, respectively.

 

Heavy crude oil production decreased primarily as a result of the decline in production at the Cantarell complex, maintenance activities, as well as adverse weather conditions registered during the first 10 days of December. This weather accounted for a deferral of 5.9 million barrels.

 

The increase of 59 Mbd in light and extra-light crude oil production was due to the completion and workover of wells, as well as the commencement of production operations in the Litoral de Tabasco and Abkatún-Pol-Chuc areas, located in the Southwest Marine Region.

Natural Gas

Production

  

Natural gas production increased by 13%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2005; non-associated gas production increased by 24%, while associated gas production increased by 5%.

 

The increase of 477 MMcfd in non-associated natural gas production was mainly due to an increase of production in the Veracruz and Burgos basins, located in the North Region. The increase of 159 MMcfd in associated natural gas production was a result of the completion and major repair of wells in the Ixtal and Taratunich fields, within the Southwest Marine Region.

 

A natural gas production record of 5,773 MMcfd was reached on December 27, 2006. Likewise, in December a non-associated natural gas production record was reached, averaging a volume of 2,480 MMcfd.

Gas Flaring    In the fourth quarter of 2006, gas flaring represented 7.8% of total natural gas production. The increase with respect to the fourth quarter of 2005 was primarily due to maintenance on the Akal C7 and C8 platforms and the beginning of operations of compression module number 8 on the Abkatún-D platform in the Marine Regions. Additionally, scheduled maintenance in Gas Processing Centers increased the volume of natural gas that was flared.

Completion of Wells   

During the fourth quarter of 2006, the number of new wells completed totaled 161, representing a reduction of 20 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2005. Development wells completed totaled 148, representing a decrease of 11, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, due to a decrease in the number of programmed wells in the Veracruz project located in the North Region and in the Ogarrio-Magallanes and Jujo-Tecominoacan projects in the South Region.

 

Exploratory wells drilled totaled 13, a decrease of 9 as compared to the fourth quarter or 2005, as a result of activity reduction in the Campeche Poniente project in the Southwest Marine Region and in the Delta del Bravo and Lankahuasa projects in the North Region.

 

It should be highlighted that on December 31, 2006 the number of non associated gas operating wells increased by 13% to 2,872, as compared to the previous year. This was due to higher activity in the Burgos, Veracruz and Lankahuasa projects, each in the North Region.

Lifting Cost    In 2006, our lifting cost was US$4.17 per barrel of crude oil equivalent. This represents a 2% decrease as compared to US$4.24 dollars per barrel of crude oil equivalent recorded in 2005, primarily as a result of lower natural gas prices used for gas lift.
Seismic Information    During the fourth quarter of 2006, 2D seismic information increased by 140% and 3D seismic information increased by 145% as compared to the same quarter of 2005. This increase was due mainly to work in the North and South Regions to identify areas with probable hydrocarbon content and support the development of discovered fields.

Veracruz

Project

  

The Veracruz Basin Integral Project is part of the Strategic Gas Program (SGP) and is comprised of 19 fields. The most important fields are Lizamba, Apértura, Arquimia, Vistoso, Cocuite and Papán. It is part of the Veracruz Production Integral Asset and is located in Veracruz, Veracruz.

 

The first field of non-associated gas was discovered in 1958 when drilling the Cocuite 3 well, which had an initial production of 10 MMcfd. The Veracruz Basin Integral Project was approved in 2001. Currently, it is the second largest field of the country in terms of non-associated natural gas production, after Burgos.

 

During the project’s 6 years of execution, the principal activities have been:

 

•        acquisition of 582 km of 2D seismic and 4,551 km2 of 3D seismic,

 

•        completion of 85 exploratory wells and 196 development wells,

 

•        workover of 122 exploitation wells,

 

•        construction of 223 works (pipelines and facilities), and

 

•        discovery of 13 fields (12 of gas production and 1 of crude oil).

 

The aforementioned has facilitated increasing average production, from 136 MMcfd in 2001 to 723 MMcfd in 2006, and reaching a production record of 861 MMcfd in December 2006. During the fourth quarter of 2006 average production was 786 MMcfd.

 

The goals for 2007 are to reach an average annual production of approximately 900 MMcfd and to incorporate approximately 300 MMMcf of gas reserves. The estimated investment expected to reach these goals is Ps. 4.3 billion. The following activities are planned:3

 

•        acquisition of 1,024 km2 of 3D seismic,

 

•        completion of 17 exploratory wells and 18 development wells, and

 

•        workover of 18 wells.

 

For the 2008-2012 period, we expect to make investments totaling Ps. 19.5 billion, to carry out the following activities:4

 

•        acquisition of 2,028 km2 of 3D seismic,

 

•        completion of 156 exploratory wells and 118 development wells, and

 

•        workover of 19 wells.

Cantarell   

During 2006, Cantarell’s daily average production was 1,788 Mbd of crude oil and 716 MMcfd of natural gas, representing a 12% decrease in crude oil production, as compared to 2,029 Mbd of oil production in 2005.

 

In November 2006, the first horizontal well in the complex was completed, Cantarell – 1009. It is characterized by a horizontal section of 150 meters and an initial production of 8.7 Mbd.

 

In December 2006, production decreased to 1,493 Mbd as a result of adverse weather conditions that forced a reduction in production during the first ten days of the month. Had the weather not affected the complex, additional production of 154 Mbd would have been expected.

 

In 2007, we expect to make investments totaling Ps. 21.1 billion to carry out the following activities:5

 

•        completion of 27 development wells (7 will be horizontal wells),

 

•        44 workovers,

 

•        startup of operations of a nitrogen elimination plant, and

 

•        installation of dehydrating and desalinization plants.

 

During the 2008-2012 period, we expect to make investments totaling a further Ps. 38.7 billion, to carry out the following activities:6

 

•        completion of 38 development wells (three multilateral wells will be executed in 2008),

 

•        8 workovers, and

 

•        deepening of 2 wells.

Ku Maloob
Zaap (KMZ)
  

The Ku-Maloob-Zaap Project is located in the Sound of Campeche in the Gulf of Mexico. It is the second largest crude oil producing project after Cantarell.

 

During 2006, average daily production was 404 Mbd of crude oil and 203 MMcfd of natural gas, for which drilling of 23 development wells were completed.

 

Approximately 300 MMcfd of nitrogen will be injected into the basins in order to maintain their pressure. This is expected to occur by the end of the first half of 2007. Likewise, during 2007, 28 development wells will be drilled and 117 km of pipelines will be installed. These activities require an investment of Ps. 29.3 billion, in order to reach an estimated production of approximately 500 Mbd in 2007.7 On February 22, 2007, a production record of 496.4 Mbd was reached.

 

During the 2008-2012 period, our investment in the project is expected to total Ps. 38.7 billion, to carry out the following activities:8

 

•        installation of platforms that will increase production capacity to approximately 800 Mbd of crude oil and 330 MMcfd of natural gas in 2010, and

 

•        completion of 60 development wells.

Gas
Processing
and Dry Gas Production
  

During the fourth quarter of 2006, total on-shore natural gas processing increased by 7%. This increase was attributable to a 306 MMcfd increase in sweet wet gas processing due to higher availability of gas in the Burgos basin. This increase was partially offset, however, by a decrease of 35 MMcfd in sour wet gas processing due to adverse weather conditions during the first ten days of December.

 

As a result of the increase in sweet wet gas and the decrease in sour wet gas processing, in the fourth quarter of 2006, dry gas production increased by 9% and natural gas liquids production decreased by 5%, as compared to the same period of 2005.

Refining

 

Processing    During the fourth quarter of 2006, total crude oil processing increased by 4% as compared to the same period of 2005. The processing of heavy crude decreased by 6%, while the processing of light crude increased by 11%. The increase in total crude oil processing was due mainly to programmed maintenance works during the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease in heavy crude oil processing was a result of the strategy to maximize diesel and gasoline production and minimize fuel oil production.

Variable Refining Margin    In the fourth quarter of 2006, PEMEX’s variable refining margin decreased by 56%,9 to US$5.5 per barrel, from US$12.5 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2005. This decrease was primarily a result of the increase in light crude oil processing and the effect that hurricanes Rita and Katrina had on last year’s prices.
Franchises    From December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006, the number of franchised gas stations rose by 5%, to 7,554, from 7,172.

9

The variable refining margin is an estimate of the operating income per barrel of crude oil processed. Operating income is calculated as total revenues minus the cost of raw materials, fuel oil and natural gas used to operate the refineries, and electric power, water and catalysts (auxiliary services)

Petrochemicals

 

Production   

Total petrochemicals production during the fourth quarter of 2006 was 2,741 thousand tons (Mt), representing a 4% increase over total petrochemicals production in the same quarter of 2005. This increase was primarily driven by:

 

•        Increased production of ethylene oxide and glycols due to the renovation of a catalyst.

 

•        Increased production of ammonia and carbon dioxide, due to better operational performance.

 

•        Increased production of methanol caused by the reopening of operations of the methanol plant in 2006, as a result of high natural gas prices.

 

Nevertheless, this increase was offset by a decrease in acrylonitrile production, due to a lower demand caused by the increase in the price of acrylonitrile. In addition, the production of low and high density polyethylene decreased due to the development of greater variety of polyethylene grades as well as equipment downtime.

Crude Oil

Exports

  

During the fourth quarter of 2006, PEMEX’s crude oil exports averaged 1,663 Mbd, 12% lower than the volume recorded during the fourth quarter of 2005. This decrease was due mainly to adverse weather conditions during the month of December and Cantarell’s production decline.

 

Approximately 83% of total crude oil exports were heavy crude oil (Maya), while the rest consisted of light and extra-light crude oil (Isthmus and Olmeca).

 

79% of total crude oil exports were delivered to the United States, while the remaining 21% was distributed among Europe (10%), the rest of the Americas (9%) and the Far East (3%).

 

In the fourth quarter of 2006, the weighted average export price of the Mexican crude oil basket was US$48.6 per barrel, as compared to US$45.6 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2005, representing a 7% increase.

Refined

Products and Petrochemicals’ Exports

  

Exports of refined products averaged 178 Mbd, 7% lower than in the fourth quarter of 2005. This was due primarily to the processing of Isthmus crude oil in La Cangrejera and lower jet fuel exports. The main refined products exported were naphtha and fuel oil.

 

Petrochemical exports decreased by 4%, or 8 Mt, totaling 184 Mt for the fourth quarter of 2006. This was attributable primarily to lower sulfur sales. The main petrochemical exports were sulfur11 and low-density polyethylene.

Imports   

In the fourth quarter of 2006, natural gas imports averaged 352 MMcfd, 24% higher than during the same period in 2005, due to an increase in domestic demand and to fuel oil substitution by Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE).

 

Imports of refined products increased by 1%, from 450 Mbd in the fourth quarter of 2005 to 455 Mbd in the fourth quarter of 2006. This increase was mainly attributable to higher demand for gasolines and diesel.

 

Imports of petrochemicals decreased by 32%, to 107 Mt, primarily due to lower ethylene, ammonia and methanol requirements. The main imported products were isobutenes and xylenes.

Sales

 

Total Sales   

During the fourth quarter of 2006, total sales, which did not include the special tax on production and services, or IEPS tax rate during the period, decreased by 11% in constant pesos, from Ps. 265.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005, including the IEPS tax, to Ps. 236.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2006. This was primarily due to lower revenue obtained from crude oil exports.

 

Crude oil exports decreased as a result of adverse weather conditions and lower crude oil production.

Domestic

Sales

  

During the fourth quarter of 2006, domestic sales, including IEPS in the fourth quarter of 2005, decreased by 6%, from Ps. 142.3 billion to Ps. 133.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005. Excluding the IEPS tax from the domestic sales figure for 2006, domestic sales decreased by 5%, from Ps. 140.0 billion to Ps. 133.0 billion:

 

•        Natural gas sales decreased by 29%, from Ps. 24.5 billion to Ps. 17.4 billion, due to a decrease in the average price from US$9.67 to US$5.79 per million British Thermal Unit (MMBtu), which was partially offset by a 16% increase in volume, from 2,506 MMcfd to 2,914 MMcfd.

 

•        Sales of refined products, net of IEPS, increased by 0.5% from Ps. 109.3 billion to Ps. 109.8 billion. Refined products sales volume decreased by 1%, from 1,794 Mbd to 1,769 Mbd. The negative IEPS generated by sales of refined products in the fourth quarter of 2006 was credited to other taxes, and appear as “other revenues” in our income statement, as compared to Ps. 2.3 billion collected and then paid to the government in the fourth quarter of 2005. Sales of refined products, including IEPS collected in the fourth quarter of 2005, decreased by 2%, from Ps. 111.6 billion to Ps. 109.8 billion.12

 

•        Petrochemical sales decreased by 5%, from Ps. 6.1 billion to Ps. 5.8 billion primarily as a result of a price effect, based on a 10% increase in sales volume, from 920 Mt to 1,012 Mt.

Costs and Operating Expenses

 

Total Amount    In the fourth quarter of 2006, costs and operating expenses decreased by 22%, or Ps. 36.8 billion, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, to Ps. 128.9 billion (US$11.8 billion). This decrease was primarily due to lower acquisition costs of products.
Cost of Sales   

In the fourth quarter of 2006, cost of sales decreased by 29%, or Ps. 42.2 billion, to Ps. 105.5 billion (US$9.7 billion). The decrease was the result of the following:

 

•        a decrease of Ps. 28.6 billion in the cost of purchase of products,

 

•        a favorable effect of Ps. 9.1 billion in the variation of inventories,

 

•        a decrease of Ps. 4.3 billion in exploration and non-successful drilling expenses,

 

•        a decrease of Ps. 3.0 billion in upkeep and maintenance,

 

•        a favorable effect of Ps. 1.6 billion in manufacturing,

 

•        an increase of Ps. 1.9 billion in the cost of the reserve for retirement payments, and

 

•        an increase of Ps. 0.9 billion in depreciation and amortization.

Distribution Expenses    During the fourth quarter of 2006, distribution expenses decreased by 2%, from Ps. 7.0 billion to Ps. 6.9 billion (US$0.6 billion).
Administrative Expenses    During the fourth quarter of 2006, administrative expenses increased from Ps. 11.0 to Ps. 16.5 billion (US$1.5 billion), partly as a result of a Ps. 1.5 billion increase in the reserve for retirement payments. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2005, the annual benefits as a result of medical services provided after retirement were recognized, representing Ps. 2.0 billion, while in 2006, these benefits were recognized throughout the year and not only during the fourth quarter.
Cost of the Reserve for Retirement Payments    The cost of the reserve for retirement payments, pensions and indemnities increased, from Ps. 13.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005 to Ps. 17.8 billion. This cost is distributed among cost of sales, distribution expenses and administrative expenses.

Operating Income

 

 

Operating income in the fourth quarter of 2006 totaled Ps. 107.3 billion (US$53.2 billion), 7% greater than the comparable figure for the fourth quarter of 2005 of Ps. 100.2 billion.

 

Excluding the IEPS collected by PEMEX in the fourth quarter of 2005, operating income increased by 10%, or Ps. 9.3 billion, to Ps. 107.3 billion (US$9.9 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2006 from Ps. 98.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005.

Comprehensive Financing Cost

 

Total Amount   

During the fourth quarter of 2006, comprehensive financing cost increased by Ps. 1.7 billion, from Ps. 0.7 billion to Ps. 2.5 billion (US$0.2 billion). This increase was mainly caused by:

 

•        a decrease of Ps. 3.8 billion in monetary gain,

 

•        an increase of Ps. 1.6 billion in foreign exchange gains, and

 

•        a decrease of Ps. 0.4 billion in net interest and financial products expense.

Net Interest and Financial Products14   

In the fourth quarter of 2006, net interest and financial products decreased by 3%, from Ps. 12.9 billion to Ps. 12.5 billion (US$1.1 billion).

 

Interest expense, including capitalized interest, decreased by Ps. 1.9 billion, while interest income increased by Ps. 1.5 billion.

Foreign Exchange Gain   

In the fourth quarter of 2006, net foreign exchange gains totaled Ps. 3.0 billion (US$0.3 billion) as compared to a net foreign exchange gain of Ps. 1.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005.

 

This increase was primarily a consequence of the depreciation of the Mexican peso against the US dollar by 1.0% during the fourth quarter of 2006, as compared to a depreciation of 0.1% in the comparable period of 2005.

Monetary Gain    In the fourth quarter of 2006, the monetary gain was Ps. 7.0 billion (US$0.6 billion), representing a decrease of Ps. 3.8 billion as compared to the monetary gain for the fourth quarter of 2005.

Income before Taxes and Duties

 

 

During the fourth quarter of 2006, income before taxes and duties was Ps. 114.5 billion (US$10.5 billion), as compared to Ps. 97.4 billion during the same period of 2005. The 18% increase was primarily the result of:

 

•       an increase of Ps. 11.8 billion in other net revenues, and

 

•       an increase of Ps. 7.1 billion in operating income, which were partially offset by

 

•       an increase of Ps. 1.7 billion in comprehensive financing cost.

Taxes and Duties

 

Fiscal Regime   

Since January 1, 2006, PEMEX has been subject to a new fiscal regime. As a result of this new tax regime taxes and duties as a percentage of total sales decreased from 63% to 55% in 2006. However, this figure still positions PEMEX among the companies with the highest tax burden worldwide.

 

Pemex - Exploration and Production’s tax regime is governed by the Federal Duties Law, while the other Subsidiary entities continue to be governed by Mexico’s Income Tax Law.

 

The most important duty paid by Pemex-Exploration and Production is the ordinary hydrocarbons duty (OHD), the tax base of which is a quasi operating profit. In addition to the payment of the OHD, Pemex - Exploration and Production pays the following duties under the new fiscal regime:

 

•       duty on crude oil extraction,

 

•       extraordinary duty on crude oil exports,

 

•       duty on hydrocarbons for the stabilization fund,

 

•       duty on hydrocarbons for the fund for scientific and technological research on energy,

 

•       duty on hydrocarbons for fiscal monitoring of oil activities,

 

•       additional duty (for low crude oil extraction), and

 

•       excess gains duty.15

Total Amount   

During 2006, taxes and duties paid decreased by 3%, from Ps. 604.2 billion to Ps. 584.5 billion. Nevertheless, sales only decreased by 10%. As a consequence, taxes and duties as a percentage of total sales decreased from 63% to 55%.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2006, taxes and duties paid decreased by 27%, from Ps. 167.2 billion to Ps. 121.4 billion. Nevertheless, sales only decreased 11%. As a consequence, taxes and duties as a percentage of total sales decreased from 63% to 51% in the fourth quarter of 2006.

 


15

In 2005, the excess gains duty was equal to 39.2% of the revenues from crude oil export sales in excess of the threshold price set by the Mexican Government of US$23.00 per barrel. In 2006, the excess gains duty is equal to 6.5% of the revenues from crude oil export sales in excess of US$36.50 per barrel. This duty is complemented by the extraordinary duty on crude oil exports, which is equal to 13.1% of the revenues from crude oil export sales in excess of the same threshold price. The resulting combined duty is equivalent to 19.6%, which is 50% of the excess gains duty tax rate paid in 2005.

IEPS   

Under the current fiscal regime, the IEPS,16 which applies to domestic sales of gasoline and automotive diesel, continues to be regulated by Mexico’s Income Tax Law.

 

During 2005 and 2006, the average producer price of gasoline and diesel was higher than the retail price. In 2005, PEMEX absorbed this difference, in accordance with Mexico’s 2005 Income Tax Law. In 2006, this difference was credited against the other taxes and duties paid by PEMEX, in accordance to Mexico’s 2006 Income Tax Law. The IEPS credit is reflected in “other revenues” in the income statement.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2006, PEMEX recorded a Ps. 4.2 billion IEPS credit against other taxes and duties, as compared to a Ps. 2.3 billion payment in the fourth quarter of 2005.

IEPS is paid by the end consumer of gasoline and automotive diesel and PEMEX is an intermediary between the Ministry of Finance (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público) and the end consumer. PEMEX collects the IEPS and passes it on to the federal government. The difference between the retail price and the estimated producer price of gasoline and diesel is primarily IEPS. The Ministry of Finance determines the retail price of gasoline and diesel. The estimated producer price of gasoline and diesel is based on the production cost of production at efficient refinery located in the Gulf of Mexico plus transportation.

Amounts in US dollars are translated at the December 31, 2006 exchange rate of Ps. 10.881 per US dollar.

This report contains forward-looking statements. We may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in our periodic reports to the National Banking and Securities Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission, in our annual report, in our proxy statements, in our offering circulars and prospectuses, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by our officers, directors or employees to third parties.

We may include forward-looking statements that address, among other things, our:

 

   

drilling and other exploration activities;

 

   

import and export activities;

 

   

projected and targeted capital expenditures and other costs, commitments and revenues; and liquidity.

Actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors that may be beyond our control. These factors include, but are not limited to:

 

   

changes in international crude oil and natural gas prices;

 

   

effects on us from competition;

 

   

limitations on our access to sources of financing on competitive terms;

 

   

significant economic or political developments in Mexico;

 

   

developments affecting the energy sector; and

 

   

changes in our regulatory environment.

Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. In any event, these statements speak only as of their dates, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any of them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

These risks and uncertainties are more fully detailed in PEMEX’s most recent Form 20-F filing, as amended, with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (www.sec.gov) and the PEMEX Prospectus filed with the National Banking and Securities Commission (CNBV) and available through the Mexican Stock Exchange (www.bmv.com.mx). These factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions. We use certain terms in this document, such as total reserves, probable reserves and possible reserves, that the SEC’s guidelines strictly prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 20-F, as amended, “File No. 0-99”, available from us at www.pemex.com or Marina Nacional 329 Floor 38 Col. Huasteca, Mexico City 11311 or at (52 55) 1944 9700. You can also obtain this Form from the SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

EBITDA, free cash-flow and discretionary cash-flow are non-GAAP measures.
