U.S. strikes Venezuela: What it could mean for BP, Shell and UK oil stocks on Monday
U.S. forces struck Venezuela and captured President Nicolas Maduro, triggering an oil embargo that has stalled the country’s crude exports. Brent crude closed at $60.75 a barrel on Friday, before the attack. Venezuela’s oil production and refining remain undamaged, but exports are paralyzed, sources said. London-listed energy shares face uncertainty as markets await the impact on oil supply and prices.
