Reforms aimed at dissolving government control.
Legislators in the Mexican government signed off on most of
the rules meant to open an oil and gas market controlled by a state monopoly.
The government of President Enrique Peña Nieto has proposed
changes to the way the oil and natural gas sector is governed. The measures, if
passed in their entirety, open a Mexican energy sector controlled by state-run
Petroleos Mexicanos, known also as Pemex, since the 1930s.
