Chevron to Invest $7 Billion in Venezuela Over Five Years Targeting 600,000 Barrels Per Day

Chevron announced Wednesday it has agreed with Venezuela on updated terms for its joint ventures in the country and plans to invest more than $7 billion over the next five years, with the goal of more than doubling its production to approximately 600,000 barrels per day from around 280,000 bpd currently.

As part of the deal, Chevron has been assigned two additional oilfields in the Orinoco Belt, the region that holds the bulk of Venezuela's vast extra-heavy crude reserves. The announcement follows a U.S. government briefing the day prior and comes shortly after President Donald Trump announced a broader deal to develop Venezuela's oil resources.
