Mexico Says Emergency Oil Shipment To U S Limited
Mexico's Pemex director Francisco Rojas says daily emergency oil shipments of 100000 barrels to the United States can continue at most two more months. Production runs at capacity of 100 percent since sanctions on Iraq and Kuwait began, with maintenance reducing output. Pemex now produces 2.6 million bpd, exporting about half, with the U S, Japan and Spain as top buyers.
