Mexican state energy company Pemex's mounting debt with oil service providers as well as private crude and gas producers threatens production, investment and in some cases even the survival of suppliers, industry groups warned. In addition to financial debt of more than $105 billion, the company disclosed that at the end of September it owed local and foreign companies about 297 billion pesos ($17.22 billion). Private oil operators' industry group Amexhi warned this week in a letter to the government, seen by Reuters, that Pemex's reluctance to pay threatens not only production but also projects already underway and some companies' very existence.
