There are multiple solutions to to this. One that twitter uses is called PEX, a concept adopted from the Java world of deployable jars. 

My thought is, if the deployment environment is under control (like the versions of Python and the access to PyPI and dependency information and versions well established), then the standard python of using pip and requirements is good too. The problem usually lies in out of control dependencies and environment and sometimes we tend to prefer a static binary.
