    Good post Rice , but we should remember that Venezuelan oil is not great quality, but it does blend well.

    The Bush family recognized this and their family companies have always imported Venezuelan oil.

    I would love to know the proven reserves of Suriname right now

    You’re not the only one. I imagine Jared Kushner is trying to learn Dutch.

    On the other hand, naaaaaahhh. Too much effort.

    Maduro has manufactured a territorial dispute to try and steal their oil.

    Huge mistake, as it's mainly USA investment until now . If he does anything crazy DTs hand will be forced ...

    I do know about that cooked-up territory grab he’s been trying to make. There are those who would love that excuse to “protect their investment.”

    Maduro has been chasing after a part of western Suriname.

    The territorial dispute was settled by an international court many years ago. Venezuela only started to shout again when oil was discovered,

    What a surprise.....

    Not to mention Guyana.

    Guyana found huge oil reserves 10 years ago, so why are most people still poor?
    With a ‘one-sided’ deal handing vast profits to the world’s top oil firms, many Guyanese ask when the energy bonanza will benefit them

    Nahuel Gallo has been held in a prison in Venezuela, on trumped up charges for 445 days, yet now there's hope he'll be released after he called his wife by phone. He's not the only Argentine to be held by the regime.
