Division of Venezuela's estate gains momentum. “It’s billions of barrels”

Chevron plans to double its production in Venezuela and invest $7 billion over the next five years. The company's CEO, Mike Wirth, expressed confidence in Venezuela's potential, citing low extraction costs and vast reserves. Chevron's new project is separate from a recent agreement between the US and Venezuela, which involves North American Blue Energy Partners and could lead to $100 billion in investments.

Chevron currently produces around 300,000 barrels per day in Venezuela and aims to increase this to 600,000 barrels per day with new concessions. Italian company Eni also announced a deal with Venezuela's PDVSA to develop a oil field, with expected investments of $1.25 billion per year.
