Venezuela Oil Update: PDVSA Cuts Output as U.S. Embargo Chokes Exports; Brent Near $60

Venezuela Oil Update: PDVSA Cuts Output as U.S. Embargo Chokes Exports; Brent Near $60

Venezuela’s state oil company PDVSA has started shutting oilfields and ordering some joint ventures — including projects with Chevron and China National Petroleum Corporation — to curb output as it runs out of storage after a U.S. tanker blockade halted crude exports, sources said. After filling more than 45% of its 48-million-barrel onshore storage capacity, PDVSA began using tankers as floating storage — keeping crude at sea — with more than 17 million barrels waiting offshore, according to TankerTrackers.com. Shipping data showed cargoes from Chevron’s ventures have not left Venezuelan waters since Thursday amid shortages of diluents, the light oils used to thin Venezuela’s heavy crude for export. Reuters

OPEC+ kept oil output unchanged on Sunday after a brief meeting, reaffirming a plan by eight key members to pause production increases — meaning no additional barrels — through March, the group said.
