April 30 (Reuters) – Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Thursday she expects state oil firm Pemex (PEMX.UL) and its Brazilian counterpart Petrobras to reach an agreement, after Brazil’s president pitched a partnership earlier this year.
Sheinbaum told her regular morning press conference she would travel to Brazil to sign a deal with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, and was looking at potential dates.
The Mexican president added that a technical team from Petrobras will travel to Mexico in mid-May to discuss issues related to production, exploration, processing and biofuels.
“From there, we’ll establish a memorandum of understanding for cooperation, and the idea is to go to Brazil to sign it,” Sheinbaum said.
