Venezuela

— Washington continues to evaluate easing sanctions on Venezuela that could allow Chevron and other cos. to take control of their ops from production to exports in an effort to boost global oil supplies, sources tell Energy Analytics Institute (EAI). Washington is also pondering allowing the restart of oil-for-fuel swaps which benefit Reliance, Eni and Repsol. But, changes will likely not come until Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro agrees to the restart of negotiations in Mexico City between his ruling party and the country’s opposition. Even then, the US is also looking for the release of more political prisoners and other guarantees w/ an eye some day on achieving “free and fair’ elections.
