On late June 2020, PEMEX was evaluating the Pachil 1EXP directional new-field wildcat (NFW) in the AE-0056-2M-Mezcalapa-06 (AE-0141-Comalcalco) entitlement block. The NFW is also located within the AE-0056-2M-Mezcalapa-06 (Campo Cibix) production entitlement block, Sureste Basin. The NFW was spudded on 30 September 2019. The well is in the north-eastern area of the block and will be drilled on the same drilling pad as the Cibix 1 oil and gas discovery, approximately 70 m distant from that wellbore.  Is assumed the NFW reached the proposed total depth (PTD) of 7,352 m measured depth (MD) and 7,000 m true vertical depth (TVD) with a kickoff point (KOP) at approximately 3,500 m, and was targeting the Cretaceous in a subsalt trap from 6,230 m to 6,330 m and the Upper Jurassic from 6,460 m to 7,000 m. The well had estimated unrisked prospective resources of 29 MMboe.   PEMEX estimated the drilling cost at 1USD to 20 MXN to be USD 30.24 million and the completion cost to be USD 11.04 million.   The 1,085.39 sq km AE-0056-2M-Mezcalapa-06 exploration entitlement block was granted to PEMEX 100% on 27 August 2014 and was relinquished on 27 August 2019 and superseded by the 1,248.96 sq km AE-0141-Comalcalco entitlement block on 28 August 2019.    On 27 May 2019,      the CNH approved a PEMEX request to modify the exploration plan associated      with the AE-0056-2M-Mezcalapa-06 entitlement block which included the      Pachil 1EXP NFW.  On 28      June 2019, the CNH approved a PEMEX request for a drilling permit for the      Pachil 1EXP directional NFW.
