How Will Ypf's Nationalization Affect Argentina?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
How Will Ypf's Nationalization Affect Argentina?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
Latin American Energy Dialogue, White Papers and Reports
Argentine President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner on April 16 announced that the government was immediately taking control of the nation's largest oil producer, YPF, and sending legislation to Congress to seize Repsol's 51 percent stake in the company. Fernández's government has complained that YPF under-invested in Argentina and has sent too much oil, and profits, abroad. Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy blasted Argentina's action, saying it lacked justification and was a 'negative decision for everyone.' Was the government justified in taking over YPF? How will the takeover affect investment in all sectors of Argentina's economy? How will the move affect …
What Are The Implications Of Mexico's Climate Change Law?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
What Are The Implications Of Mexico's Climate Change Law?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
Latin American Energy Dialogue, White Papers and Reports
Mexico's Congress in April passed a landmark climate change law after three years of debate and revisions, Reuters reported. The bill's mandates require that 35 percent of Mexico's energy come from renewable sources by 2024 and carbon emissions must be 50 percent below 2000 levels by 2050, among other requirements. What will be the effects of Mexico's new climate law? Will the energy sector be able to meet the increased demand for renewable power? How do other Latin American countries' future energy plans compare with Mexico, and are they likely to adopt similar legislation? Does the law's passage reflect pessimism …

Brazil Sues Chevron Following Oil Spill, Andrés Gaudín
Brazil Sues Chevron Following Oil Spill, Andrés Gaudín
NotiEn: An Analytical Digest About Energy Issues in Latin America
Thanks to operations that lacked both integrity and reliability and which produced a spill of at least 300 barrels of crude a day for eight days, Chevron will have to pay millions of dollars in fines and damages. Chevron has become accustomed to such emergencies; in Ecuador, the court found it guilty but so far it has evaded compliance with the verdict thanks to a legion of lawyers who know well how to move through the corridors of power. The Brazil case seems to confirm environmentalists' fears: everything indicated that, after Nov. 8, 2011, the courts would exclude Chevron from …

The rescue of nine Peruvian miners who were trapped underground for seven days in a horizontal shaft at La Cortada copper mine in the Cabeza de Negro area of the coastal department of Ica, 300 km south of Lima, shone the spotlight once again on informal and illegal mining, undertaken without security measures and outside the law. President Ollanta Humala has decided to stop such activities.

Mexican Congress Approves Far-Reaching Environmental Legislation, Carlos Navarro
NotiEn: An Analytical Digest About Energy Issues in Latin America
The Mexican Congress made a bold statement this month by approving comprehensive legislation to reduce greenhousegas emissions and take other actions to help the country address global climate change. The ambitious plan—approved 12810 in the Chamber of Deputies and ratified unanimously in the Senate in April—only awaits the signature of President Felipe Calderón. The president has been an outspoken advocate of measures to address climate change, so his signature is virtually guaranteed. With the law's passage, Mexico would become the second nation to enact legally binding emissions restrictions. Great Britain is the only other country to take such a step.
Can Argentina Block Energy Development In The Falklands?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
Can Argentina Block Energy Development In The Falklands?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
Latin American Energy Dialogue, White Papers and Reports
Last month, the Argentine government said it had begun legal proceedings against five British oil companies it has accused of carrying out ""illegal operations"" in waters near the disputed Falkland Islands. It also asked stock markets in New York and London to warn investors of its claim that the exploration companies are working illegally. Will investors be scared away by the threats? What is the oil potential for the disputed islands and how will Argentina's campaign affect their development?
What Does A State-Run Energy Company Need To Succeed?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
What Does A State-Run Energy Company Need To Succeed?, Inter-American Dialogue's Latin American Energy Advisor
Latin American Energy Dialogue, White Papers and Reports
Argentina last week announced it would seize the 51 percent of YPF owned by Repsol, arguing that the company had not invested enough in the country's energy sector development. Meanwhile, the top two contenders for the Mexican presidency have suggested that state-run Pemex should be opened up to private investment, following examples in Brazil and Colombia, to improve productivity. What does it take to make a state energy company succeed? What policies should governments seek to emulate and which should they avoid? Does history stand on the Argentine government's side in YPF's nationalization?

A spate of new power projects, surging foreign investment, and a welcome dose of positive press coverage are helping transform Nicaraguas gogetter energy goals from pipe dream to reality. In 2009, Nicaraguan authorities unveiled an ambitious sevenyear plan that called for expanding overall electricity supply by 70%. Furthermore, the Ministerio de Energía y Minas (MEM) boldly predicted that, by 2017, nearly all of the country's electricity (90%) would come from renewableenergy sources.'

Pemex Files New Lawsuit Against Us Companies For Acquiring Stolen Fuel, Carlos Navarro
NotiEn: An Analytical Digest About Energy Issues in Latin America
The staterun oil company PEMEX has filed a fresh lawsuit against a dozen US energy companies, alleging that they acquired and resold fuel that Mexican criminal organizations stole in Mexico. PEMEX has tightened security to prevent fuel theft, but the companys efforts have fallen short because of widespread corruption and the remoteness of many of its facilities. PEMEX, the only company allowed to market petroleum products in Mexico, has suffered significant losses because of thefts of refined products, from gasoline to natural gas condensates. The company recently estimated the value of stolen products on the black market at about 3.5 …
