Doesn’t the Mexican Constitution prohibit foreign involvement in their petroleum industry, which is why their big oil field (Cataral?) is running down?

But then it has been talked about for a very long time.

The Cantarell Field has been in production for over 3 decades. While they have some enhanced oil recovery and more will certainly be done, production rates are going to decline. It isn’t a magic fountain, it will not last forever at it’s peak flow rate.
