Doesn't seem significant. Probably means oil prices go up with the uncertainty in the country now

So china will need to get their oil from somewhere else now. Wonder where

It’ll be a blip Monday.
See how China responds

China imports about 76% of the exported oil from Venezuela which is probably disrupted now. But they only accounted for less than 4% of China's imports.

That could easily be absorbed by the Saudis, but guessing they would rather prices go back up

Unless China uses this as a green light to invade Taiwan, the market will pop and oil will hit the 40’s. Venezuela can flood the World with cheap, heavy crude.

They can, but that’s probably a few years off.

No effect.
But crawfish prices will go up.

Probably near term negative for cvx with the uncertainty. Unless we put boots on the ground to protect their assets

Markets will creep down a few hundred points. I don’t see any catalyst for the upside and things seem to be in a lull since the holidays.

Read somewhere this hurts O&G companies from Canada because they produce more heavy crude than most American companies.

Yep, I think current production is 700k/day, potential is 3.5M or so after pulling the warm blanket of collectivism off their dilapidated infrastructure.

I don't expect serious investment in Venezuela considering the political uncertainty and Trump being out of office in 3 years. Plus oil prices may not support it.

Oil is below $60/barrel plus the Russian /Ukraine war likely ends this year and with sanctions lifted Russia turns on the spigots. Won't be surprised to see oil near $50 this year.

Go check out Chevron, Halliburton and Schlumberger.

Yea, I think Chevron has the most upside of the majors followed by the service companies as those are the companies that can take advantage of a ramp up in activity the quickest.
