Road from Chontalpa to Las Choapas

Despite the rural agricultural appearance this is serious oil country (Mexico is world´s 6th largest oil producer and agriculture only accounted for 4.1% of the Mexican GDP. The state oil company PEMEX seems to have drilling installations everywhere not much visible physical evidence of them though apart from road signs indicating where a station is located.)
