Read that PR carefully.
It does not say that MVNT has a joint venture WITH Pemex, but rather a JV with 2 other companies to do a "joint tender bid" **TO** Pemex. The other two companies are not named in the release. Presumably they are also smaller niche suppliers in the oilfield service/monitoring space, and individually none of the three can offer the full suite of capabilities that Pemex wants for remote monitoring.
"...Sami Suheil, Vice President of Technology, adds, βThe joint venture is an alliance of three companies that have entered a joint tender bid to Pemex for the remote monitoring of well real time data for on-shore and off-shore operations in Pemex southeastern region. The entire joint venture team is excited not only about this initial contract but is also looking forward to the follow-up contracts and potential future."
It is a creative way for MVNT to approach larger accounts like Pemex, but they are still looking to SELL STUFF TO PEMEX. It is not a JV WITH Pemex.
