Description

Venezuelas PDVSA faces a crude oil storage crisis amid US sanctions, with tankers used to store excess oil. The US blockade has left over a dozen cargoes stranded off Venezuelas coast. PDVSA pumps one million barrels daily, with the Jose terminal in eastern Venezuela feeling the strain. Chevron, however, continues exporting crude from joint ventures, keeping western storage near normal levels. PDVSA is offering price discounts to Chinese buyers to clear inventories, which have surged past ten million barrels in China.
