Spanish term
producción comercial
Spanish to English
Law/Patents
Petroleum Eng/Sci
Law 8 of 1987 - Oil and Hydrocarbon exploration
Cap Primero
La Exploración
Art 35: La duración del período de exploración será de cinco años a partir del perfeccionamiento del contrato de operación. Si al vencimiento de los cinco años no se ha determinado producción comercial, no obstante haberse cumplido el Programa Exploratorio Mínimo, el Estado, a solicitud del Contratista, prorrogará una sola vez y hasta por dos años el período de exploración.
I feel that "commercial production" is not appropriate here. Does this mean whether sufficient hydrocarbons have been found to merit the commercial development of a reservoir/field? This law has been badly drafted but I am loath to read to much into the term. Am grateful for any suggestions, as I want to keep this translation as close to the original as possible. Badly drafted or not, this is a law.
Many thanks!

Commercial Production
I believe that commercial production is a good option since I don't find any other good answer to your problem. As you said, that law is badly drafted and if you want to keep as close to the original as possible "commercial production" might be a good answer.
Good luck!
