Pricing: Retail price adjustments are decoupled from world price movements and smoothed by adjusting the special tax on production and service. For gasoline and diesel, this tax was negative for three years until May 2009, when it became positive gasoline, and has been negative since Jun 2009 for gasoline and since Jul 2009 for diesel. In 2012, the special tax averaged –US$0.22/liter for regular gasoline, –US$0.23 for diesel, and –US$0.30 for premium gasoline. Regular gasoline and diesel prices were raised at a nominal annual rate of 10–11% in 2010, 2011, and 2012. In 2007, the price of diesel rose by only 4% and gasoline by 5%. The price of regular gasoline grew at only 7% in 2008 and 6% in 2009, but the price of diesel rose by 21% and 16%, respectively. The pace of increase has not been enough to catch up with rising world prices since 2010. Monthly average retail diesel prices and benchmark FOB prices relevant to Mexico are shown below. It is clear that, although not as large as in 2008, a sizable subsidy continues. When the benchmark LPG prices in Belvieu, Texas, United States, are high, LPG prices in Mexico are kept below import-parity levels, despite Mexico’s being a large net importer of LPG. Under Mexico’s climate law, passed in Apr 2012 and only the second in the world after UK’s Climate Change Act of 2008, government will formulate rules to phase out fossil fuel subsidies.
Consequences of subsidies: The annual implicit subsidy in 2011 for LPG alone amounted to MXN40 billion (US$3.2 billion). Pemex has had trouble moving refinery projects forward, turning Mexico into a significant importer of petroleum products.
Hedging: Although different from hedging petroleum product prices to protect consumers, Mexico hedges crude exports every year to protect fiscal revenues. Government achieved remarkable success by hedging crude oil exports in 2009, spending US$1.5 billion for hedging contracts and earning US$5 billion in return.
Information: Ministry of Energy posts detailed price information on petroleum products. For LPG, Ministry of Energy regulates transport and distribution tariffs, and Ministry of Economy gazettes maximum consumer prices in 145 distribution zones every month."
