especially deepwater. >> thank you, it is a pleasure to be here with you. oil prices are important to us. any major oil company. in the context of the reform process we have embarked on in mexico, the short-term impact of prices will not divert us from taking long-term decisions. developmentosts of is around $22 per barrel. our projects are profitable at current levels, as we speak. therefore, developing shallow water or onshore fields continues to be our plan. including, as well as you have mentioned, deep water projects at current levels. are stemming from energy reform and look interesting. we will pursue them. >> good morning. it is guy johnson as well. what is your expectation going forward for the oil price? it seems to have caught many by surprise, the drop we have seen recently. didn't catch you by surprise and what do you expect from here? is an important participant in the market. we've been monitoring the price. we are in the business for the long term. as i was mentioning, the projections of the oil price will not divert us from taking this long-term decision. our view is that demand will take up. asia will continue to grow. showsice of oil over time probably a plateau at higher levels. market volatility stems from other parts of the world. we will be looking at this with cautious. >> give me a sense. you've had a tough time recently. straight reported 8 quarterly losses and in the third quarter you have a loss of more than $4 billion. how are you maintaining operations with such massive losses? is taxed heavily under the oil regime. approved inntly mexico energy reform that fully transforms the system for the oil industry. pemex will face, starting in 2015, a lower tax rate. therefore, our ebitda and other financial indicators will look very different. if you look at pemex from an ebitda standpoint, we have one of the strongest ebitda margins in the industry. what really effects pemex today are the heavy taxes that the government imposes on pemex. reform addresses these challenges. by lowering the tax rate and allowing for the first time in for privateof pemex companies to come invest along with pemex. aat you will end up with is situation where private capital together with pemex will increase investments in the country, production will go up. but with lower taxes. therefore, pemex's finances will be strengthened considerably. >> wendy do you expect those losses to end? you suggest you will have two other quarters of losses and that's it. of a course of next year and 2016, as a result of the new investments from private capital along with pemex, we will be able to increase production and hydrocarbon reserves more quickly. therefore these losses will be reversed progressively over the course of next year. >> when are we going to see the big sign? focus on?you his technical ability do you need? >> pemex has a very broad and diversified hydrocarbon-based. wehave onshore fields and have mature fields. we have light crude, heavy crude , shallow letter. as you asked as well, we have important reserves in deep water. our variety of players is big. we've been talking to various oil companies on every segment of the value chain. not only upstream, midstream and downstream. it is a transformation for the company. company would undermine the -- speaking about one company would undermine the big interest mexico is facing. we expect to partner on 10 blocks. many of thete in bidding rounds that the government will be putting out for concourse over 2015. pemex knows those fields very well. we have unique infrastructure we can offer to partners. we are very enthusiastic about this reform process. it is a transformational moment for the company. technology and the right type of financing structures to monetize those assets quickly. in a world where we seem to have a demand problem with oil. it is obviously a supply problem as well. does the world need more mexican oil right now? we seem to have a lot of it. opec continues to pump aggressively. we have shell out of the u.s. and canada. -- we have shale out of the u.s. and canada. the oil industry is putting in singapore. how do you fit into the supply story? is -- the large we will not see this overnight. incremental production mexico participant will supply, those barrels will come progressively in the coming years. lookeality is that if you at the world economy, with a young population in some asian countries and the demand-side does not concern pemex at all. we believe demand will pick up. the in the medium-term or however you define that. very complex process that the international companies and national committees are facing. they are becoming more complex. thosest associated with products that we are facing will at some point be translated into the price. i am sure i speak for other large oil and death companies, needs to look at projects in the long term. >> thank you so much. .milio lozoya, ceo of pemex >> decision day at the federal reserve. qe it the exit of -- is it the exit of qe?
