In- cludes liquid hydrocarbons condensed in natural gas pipelines. Crude oil. Excludes condensates and natural gas liquids production. The crude oil recovered can be light or heavy as follows: Heavy crude oil. Crude oil with API gravity less or equal than 27°. Most of this oil is produced in the Campeche Basin. Light crude oil. Crude oil with API gravity range from 27° to 38°.This type is produced in the Campeche Basin and others areas in the country. Lighter crude oil. Crude oil with API gravity higher than 38°. Thistype of crude oil is produced in the Mesozoic areas of the Southern RegionRegarding crude oil marketing, Mexico exports three varieties with the following typical char- acteristics: Maya. Heavy crude oil, 22°API gravity and 3.3 weight % sulfur. Istmo. Light crude oil, 33.6°API gravity and 1.3 weight % sulfur. Olmeca. Very light crude oil, 39.3°API gravity and 0.8 weight % sulfur. Domestic sales. Invoiced sales by PEMEX to distributors and national customers throughout the country. Regionalization for sales of refined products. Starting from 2002 the regionalization used by the Presidency of Mexican Republicis adopted. Centre region: Edo. de México, Distrito Federal, More- los, Tlaxcala, Hidalgo and Puebla. Northeast region: Chihuahua, Durango, Coahuila,Tam- aulipas and Nuevo León. Northwest region: Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sonora and Sinaloa.

Average number of rigs daily engaged in drilling wells and cor- responding activities such as disassembling, transport, and main- tenance. Dry natural gas. It is natural gas free of heavier liquid hydrocarbons (natural gas liq- uids) consisting of ethane, propane, butanes and natural gasoline. Field (producing).

Nomenclature

Petróleos Mexicanos (PEMEX) es una empresa paraestatal integrada y es responsable de desarrollar los recursos de hidrocarburos del país. Es tam-bién una de las mayores productoras de petróleo crudo y gas natural del mundo, operando a través de un corporativo y cuatro organismos subsidia-rios: PEMEX Exploración y Producción se encarga de explorar y desarrollar las reservas de petróleo crudo y gas natural de México. PEMEX Refinación se ocupa de transformar el petróleo crudo en gasolinas, turbosinas, diesel, combustóleo y gas licuado del petróleo, así como de distribuir y comercializar la mayor parte de dichos productos en el país. PEMEX Gas y Petroquímica

Básica procesa gas natural y líquidos del gas natural; transporta, distribuye y comercializa gas natural y gas licuado en México; y elabora y comercia-liza varios productos petroquímicos básicos. PEMEX Petroquímica produce y comercializa materias primas petroquímicas entre las cuales se incluyen, derivados del metano y del etano como el amoniaco, metanol y polietilenos, además de otras olefinas y aromáticos. PMI Comercio Internacional, empresa subsidiaria de PEMEX, proporcio-na a los cuatro organismos subsidiarios servicios relacionados con el comer-cio exterior.
