BARBOSA CANO, Fabio. Situación de los campos petroleros en aguas profundas del mundo. Prob. Des [online]. 2008, vol.39, n.155, pp.101-125. ISSN 0301-7036.

The present study presents a panorama of the world's deep-sea oilfields, especially those that are in operation. It aims to show that deep-sea exploitation is a phenomenon parallel to the current rise in prices, whose escalation is a specific affair requiring special analysis. We do not know to what extent they are affected by the political situation and supply problems that are undoubtedly present, pushing exploration and extraction towards increasingly more difficult areas. The article inquires into the technological innovations that tend to reduce the cycle between discovery and the coming into operation of deep-sea oilfields, and argues that some of them will apply to oilfields in Mexico with the ominous consequences of plummeting Mexican production.

Palavras-chave : hydrocarbons; exploration; exploitation; deep-sea and technology.
