Trump is dumb. He doesn't understand that the US military would need to invade and control the country in order to carry out his big Oil scam. Even the oil Execs know it.

Their oil is very crude and takes a lot of solvents to make it workable. Those solvents are basically sulfuric acid at temp. The investing they are talking about is infrastructure over there, apparently its in disrepair because of the solvents, and we probably need to retrofit some lines over here on top of extra maintenance.

Offshore storage and loading facilities connected to the rigs. Then we won’t have to deal with whoever is in charge if it all goes tits up, just place some anti ship and anti submarine weapons on them and enjoy the oil.

It's in demand where it is near refining infrastructure
Again the price of oil is falling with no signs of that changing so again why would they invest big in refining more oil at extreme cost to further lower the price?

Before the kidnapping even happened, the reason people were saying Venezuela needs to be Viet Nam is because the oil is not easy to reach, needs a lot of infrastructure (5-10 years before any returns) and if the US ever doesn't militarily support it anymore, it all falls apart... again.

I like most things Trump does but this is kind of weird. I swear the quote sounded like the guy was still open to investment, just wanting the country to be fixed a bit first.

By the time you transport it to be refined you lose all profit refining it
There is no supply issue with oil needing refining in the states, especially with recent drilling limits being removed
And again the price is falling with no sign of stopping

Exxon already has the largest oil reserves in the world, including the largest discovery in the modern era, all in in more stable jurisdictions than Venezuelan.

As one of the best capital allocators in the oil industry, maybe Exxon doesn’t think it’s a good idea to allocate capital in an unstable communist country and would prefer to spend money further developing its own oil deposits?

Trump can’t force them develop Exxons oil reserve but he can for tax payers to pay for it.

From my very ignorant position in life, isn't their oil pretty much shit?

From what little I know, isn't the oil down there extremely thick and quick to harden, so you have a hard time processing it into something usable, and transport is a pain in the ass due to having to keep the shit heated?

On top of that, the infrastructure down there is awful, very out of date, and the only places in the world to really clean the stuff and make it usable is in Russia or China?

I say that I am stupid, because if I hit any nail on the head, then why is the supposed SMARTED PRESIDENT EVER this retarded to think just because there is oil its actually good?

Art of the deal. We dont want to invest means you need to do X Y Z A B C D E F G to make Venezuela a safe place to invest. Exon wants boots on the ground, and so Trump said fine fuck off, your former assets go to Chevron Im sure they wont mind developing them.

>>525820570
People like you would be the first to cry of Exon got what they were really asking for. Theyre also being denied for the post about him farting a bunch of times. Hes likely associating it with Exons team since they were so negative overall. FAFO as they say.

>>525816733
Little does media tell you, but Venezuelan oil is utter dogshit in terms of quality.
The supply's plenty, but cracking usable petrochemicals out of it costs a fucking fortune compared with good oil.
>>
>>525816250
Exxon is right, I'm glad he is trying to get investment into Venezuela, but companies need the country to be safer and a lot more stable than it is now, maybe a few more strikes on belligerent forces, but as it is now it's not a secure investment.

>>525816733
all the other stuff mentioned aside, the oil itself is "heavy" meaning that it is really only good as bunker fuel (transport ships) or stuff like asphalt. it would take more (costly) refining to do anything with it as far as normal gasoline goes.

Trump just says "oil" but there are many different kinds of oil that are good for different things
>>
>>525820838
Im all in favor of blowing half the country up from afar, and really personally in favor of boots on the ground as long as those boots are going around exterminating collectivistas or whatever those road-block commie groups are called. The world needs less of those communists breathing.
>>
>>525817946
lol — just like Noriega.
>>
>>525821007
China is still building out road infrastructure and it is very good as asphalt. Venezuela's oil was a large source of it, which is likely why Trump was so interested in it. Iran is their #1 supplier of heavy oil (lol)

it offers many benefits to control it but the USA doesn't necessarily -need- the oil itself. it forces China to trade in USD more if they want it.
>>
>>525817746
Its both. The low quality of Venezuela's oil requires a lot of additional investment to render into unseable product, but also why would you as a major oil company look at the current situation and think this makes sense as a long term plan?

Who are you making a deal with? The established leader just got black bagged, and it might happen again. So you can't make a deal with the new president because in a month they might get Navy Sealed too. You can't trust Trump's word that Venezuela is open for business, both because is isn't actually in charge there AND even if he was in 3 years he is out of office and who fucking knows what American policy is going to be like after that. There's a pretty big chance that American foreign policy will do a big U-turn the moment the next president gets sworn in.

It doesn't make sense to spend billions of dollars investing in Venezuela right now when you have zero reason to believe that you'll even be around there long enough to make back your investment on it. Odds are just too damn high of getting kicked out before you're even really set up.
>>
It is heavy crude, but lot of companies in the US are already equipped to refine heavy crude. China actually just finished a refinery specifically for heavy crude, but now all that investment is maybe going to waste as they were buying it for below market value from Maduro, now they will have to buy it from the US if they still want it at market rate for heavy. But since we have got better at refining that type of oil it's not as costly as it use to be.
>>
>>525816733
it means the US military guarding pipelines and facilities for a decade to even get it online, so the profitability to pay that type of investment back is even longer. it also means that the US military would have to guard it the entire lifetime of its operation, venezuela is not going to magically be permanently subjugated forever just because they abducted maduro. they spent half a trillion in canada in the meantime, so why would they undercut their own investment for a controversial political win for trump?

the old US playbook in the region is to install a dictator and let the paramilitary death squads murder anyone who doesn't agree, supply some training via the CIA and school of the americas, and those types of regimes tend not to last forever because they have to continually beat down their population.
>>
>>525821037

i cant imagine being as big as exxon and seeing rly any lvl of risk as being too much, least of all when talking about one of the largest oil reserves on earth
like, even if you just get robbed (again), thats still just putting you back more or less where youre at rn. and the payout is fucking absurd.

if they dont want it, then someone else is gonna take it and exxon will forever remain salty
thats too much money to leave on the table

>>525821395
>The low quality of Venezuela's oil requires a lot of additional investment to render into unseable product,
Most major refineries in the US can already process heavy crude, there is no additional investment needed there. For China they had to do a bunch of additional investment to finish their refinery for it which finished only last year and they were expecting the heavy discounts they were getting from Maduro.

I'm genuinely appalled at how retarded this board has become.

What these mouthbreathers in pol don't get is that during wartime the profits will no longer matter and the likes of Exxon and Chevron will be forced to drill baby drill with guns pointed at the back of their necks. Hell, if needed there'll be hundreds of thousands of leftist slave labour to dig the oil with their nails. What's so hard to understand?

We'll see what happens but at the meeting with oil executives, Trump said multiple times that the oil companies would pay for it and the government would spend no money on repairing the equipment or helping them. The government will secure VZ so the oil companies can operate and profit. Oil production can 4x with the infrastructure repaired. Some money will go to VZ to repair the country and improve QOL
>>
>>525822205
They are talking about "rendering" it into a usable product which is not pumping. Those are different things, it is also harder to pump but investment on that end was already expected as the Venezuelan government didn't invest much, if anything, into upkeep or upgrades.

>Most major refineries in the US can already process heavy crude
Heavy crude problems dont come only from being more dificult to process also for yielding less profitable products. The heavier an oil the more asphalt, heavy fuel oil and the less LPG gasoline and diesel it has. Thats why heavy acidic crude oil is dirt cheap, because you need a lot of processing and yields less per barrel, more investing for less yield.
On a sidenote I dont blame oil corporations for doubting investing in Venezuela right now, they dont really know who actually runs the country right now (Trump saying "I rule" doesnt mean a lot), they dont know who is going to rule it next year or how the populace is going to react to whoever is put in power, what if this shitshow lasts two years, then they kick us out and nationalize everything again after we invest billions there? What if the next president jumps ship and we are left to fend for ourselves?
One thing big money investors hate is uncertainty and right now Venezuela is a pile of doubts.

Checked and it is a win
During peace times and if US/VZ relationship is friendly, the oil companies will be making money. Denying VZ from the chinks, cubans, russians, iranians, and hezbollah, is a win. Its also expanding our sphere of influence in a very literal way. If everything goes well, the QOL for venezuelans will improve. Maduro/Chavez VZ was also a funder of the left in America.
Im glad the operation to abduct maduro went well, it was a serious gamble but it paid off.

Its a gamble. Like a lot of CapEx decisions. The companies who do invest are bullish on the US and VZ. Exxons concerns are legitimate and imo their hesitance will result in lost profits and they'll try to get in the game in 2yr once they see that they were too conservative.

They aren't investing in heavy crude if they get nothing out of it, you're still gasoline, petrochemicals, lubricants yes tar and asphalt etc. all things that are used and needed which is why oil is so valuable, even heavy crude especially as technology to refine it has become so much better.

But yes it is a big investment especially at this time. If there was a way to get rid of the colectivos or other paramilitary groups that terrorize the population and make it impossible to live there, that would be the security guarantees they would need. I'm sure there will be some more risk taking companies because the risk is still rewarding IF the US can provide some security, but they can't really just part a carrier down there forever.

Actually, most of the largest reserves of oil are actually medium to heavy crude. Arabs also got the heavy, ruskies the same iranians have both heavy and light.
The best quality oils are the malaysian and the norwegian ones. Nigerian's ok.
Point is with Venezuela's largest reserves you can make up for the low yield of a heavy crude.

Even if Trump was willing to use the US military to guard US oil investments that doesn't mean some future US government will maintain the effort, plus it presents these companies with huge political risks: they're basically thieves stealing Venezuelas resources and might find themselves blacklisted from law-abiding countries. Exxon has major investments all around the world that would be put at risk if it participates in imperial pillage in Venezuela.

It still changes things, it energizes the populous and makes the government more scared of a second strike that so easily took out their leader, a lot of these officials are just corrupt and want to get rich, they aren't that interested in dying and now that the US just walked through their Russian and Chinese defense systems they have nothing to even just feel secure about.

This was always a gamble, it seems to have had many positive impacts including showing that the Chinese and Russian tech these other countries were buying is useless against the US, it has made other dictators in the area scared, and it seems to have got the remaining government to be more ready to negotiate with the US and weakens Cuba among other things. The gamble too is that Maduro was deeply unpopular in Venezuela and the region, and that Venezuelans, unlike people in Iraq or Afghanistan, are more compatible with western values so they will be easier to negotiate with.

Kek exactly what I was thinking.

>>525826882
it's not just about being insured, they won't see a return on their investment for almost twenty years or more and it will be a pittance when it does, this couldn't come at a worse time when oil prices are cratering, asking them to invest right now is like asking them to shoot themselves in the face

You’re an actual retard. That farting article was written by a satirical website you absolute dipshit. It’s no wonder you’re so swooned by Trump because you’re a fucking mouthbreathing idiot.

Imagine another president putting a big oil corpo in their place like this instead of bending over for them. TDS shills are somehow making this out to be a bad thing.

Also it's mixed in heavily with sand and gravel. It's like tar. Not only does it cost a lot using superheated steam to separate it with the energy cost, put that shit in a pipeline and the endless miles of gravel passing through the steel pipes wears them out really fast and then you've got leaks all over the place. It is shitty oil, not West Texas Intermediate or Brent. Sweet with not much sulphur in it.. It's tar sands shit, bituminous. Doesn't even have a grade to it. Requires immensely expensive processing. Not economical.

Trust Exxon to tell the truth. They've been round this circuit before, investing billions in Venezuela oil extraction and they got screwed when Venezuela communists kicked them out and seized their investments only to let them degrade to almost a useless state since maintenance is not a thing in their sub human nigger brains.

If the oil's not worth much, why are Chinese and Russian tankers taking shipments out weekly?

Alberta tier oil. Time to use sonic weapons in Alberta for that oil and kidnap the PM!

Exxon: we've had our stuff stolen twice by venezuela in the past 50 years, and, the sour heavy oil here (which comes out like sludge, not liquid) is far more expensive to process than other oil. Why the f would we invest here without, at least, security guarantees - and maybe not even with those?"

Trump: those facts were too cute, who has a different set of facts that sounds better

because russians are niggers and chinks are bugmen, they are both retarded, take what they can get and don't mind poisoning themselves

The US can't afford that; the US is bankrupt and cannot even make the 3 Trillion annual vig on their 38.5 trillion national debt. Wars are super expensive; that's why Nixon had to take the US off the gold standard in 72. The Vietnam war basically bankrupted the USA. The answer? Just print money and rob the hard working taxpayers by stealing their savings silently, secretly with inflation.

All the analysts Martin Armstrong. Col Macgregor, Edward Dowd and many more are promising this year, a financial crash and Weimar era hyperinflation that will make the Great Depression look tame. Back then America was a white country with industrial capacity. Now? It's full of lawless retarded niggers and all the industrial capacity has been sent by Wall St. jews to Communist China.

>why would you say no?
Because they just had China say the same thing and China was already doing it

America came in malding because of that and then killed a bunch of your people and kidnapped your president

Why would you want to deal with mafia style negotiations?

>>525836793
Sounds like bullshit to me. The oil has value of course, but oil companies are very risk-averse because of the Iraq war, BP oil disaster, and because Venezuela is truly destabilized right now.
Somebody's getting the contracts here eventually, the companies will end up figuring something out. Probably mercs until Venezula gets stable. And they'll get stable. The people causing instability will eventually be removed.

>>525836524
They have security with venezuela's current government and are leveraging existing, aging, platforms. The crude is still inferior to brent but can be processed profitably, especially with deals they have with venezuela.

Whereas XOM is being asked to invest new billions in infrastructure with a hostile (even if temporarily subued) govt and society. These investments require upfront billions for years, then years of pumping to break even, and then finally profit. If the profit years are years 10-50 on your investment, you want a strong sense that they won't be seized early or or at all. But XOM had it's shit stolen twice by Venezuela in the past 50 years - why would they gamble on this?

But Trump expects fascism (using the term as mussolini would, not a SJW faggot) and for these companies to obey him regardless. He really is getting too close to the sun - pissing off uk, france, germany, and both russia and ukraine somehow, and leftists who dont like ICE bullets in their face, and right wing antisemites, and the fed chairman (redpill for finance bros) and the XOM ceo (redpill for old money energy execs).

It's almost as of he's trying to piss off every single center of elite power in the world and gambling everything on jewish intel agencies and billionaires. What a complete disaster and disappointment.

>The low quality of Venezuela's oil
From the biggest reserves in the world. This feels like short-term idiotic thinking as sooner or later, they will be fighting over this oil as the higher-quality wells run dry.

You underestimate Trumps power. He can and will punish Exxon for criticizing the Orange King.

As long as it's Carney and not Alberta's Premier Danielle Smith who is actually the best premier in Canada.

>Exxon has major investments all around the world that would be put at risk if it participates in imperial pillage in Venezuela.
Kek are you fucking retarded? You don't have a clue what you are yapping about, leftist moron. Oil operations in Venezuela would be no different than any other part of the world for these companies. Go back to redddit you frothing fucking nigger retard.

>>525821453
There's absolutely zero money on the table retard

Even if in 10 years they get it up and running, there's zero reason why China or Russia won't just send one strike to blow all that shit up
>>
>>525816250
Doesn't the country lack critical infrastructure needed to actually pump oil there? Not to mention you still need to do a fuckload of work to make said oil even usable which takes years so yeah, it's kind of uninvestible.
>>
>>525837076
It really is stupendous.

Rooting from Trump are the Silicon Valley tech oligarchs, Israel and it's billionaire diaspora supporters, and... El Salvador? Quisling opposition politicians in various countries whose electoral chances are being torpedoed by Trump's wild unpopularity?

EVERY sector - besides big tech - of the US economy wants Trump dead and gone. Every NATO leader. Somehow also simultaneously all the "resistance" countries China, Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, all would love to see him dead. Irrelevant thirdies want him dead. US higher education and media wants him dead. Nearly the entirety of the US Congress including most Republicans would be overjoyed if Trump dropped dead.

How is this guy still alive?
>>
>>525837586
Trump has claimed the US government - as according to him to be controlled personally by him - will be taking a cut of Venezuelan oil revenue seemingly in exchange for not blockading it. Out and out extortion.

There's no precedent for that anywhere I can think of, and participating in a mafiosa shakedown of an oil producing state might just, ya know, be unpopular with other oil producing states and cause them to, ya know, not want to do business with those complicit.

Apparently we can process and refine their crude. I see conflicting videos on this but I think we can actually do it.

>>525837046
russia is a resource rich country, packed with minerals and it's economy runs on exporting oil and natural gas, instead of trying to hype up venezuela's oil quality into something it's not, why aren't you asking why the fuck does russia even care about venezuela's oil at all
probably because you don't want to talk about the fact it's not about the quality of the oil but their geo-political standings and how russia always aligns itself with countries that take an adversarial position to the u.s. because they're still living in a cold war mindset, never moved on and are such slave nigger cattle they can't dream of anything better

He either has God or Lucifer backing him 100%. People like him only come around once every 100 years or so. Last century it was Adolf Hitler. In the 1800s it was Andrew Jackson. In the 1700s it was Napoleon.

>and it's economy runs on exporting oil
Then why are they taking it out of Venezuela?

Napoleon was "the great man" of the 1800s but otherwise I agree, Napoleon > Hitler > Trump. I sometimes do seriously wonder if I'm living in his wish-fulfilment simulation. It just doesn't make any sense.

to keep the country destabilized and ready to collapse because we live in the time of mass migration used as a war doctrine to flood western countries with refugees (((asylum seekers))) to put pressure and stress on already shrinking western white population centers

If I learned to to treat immigrants like trash, why can't other White dudes? I don't get other people. I really don't understand why Europeans/Whites put up with bullshit. I don't.
And before anyone says I never leave my house, I do, and when I do nobody tries to fuck with me because I look like a very dangerous person that would kill someone as soon as look at him. Because I will. If someone ever even attempted to harm me, I would butcher him/her. Man, woman, child, animal, it doesn't matter. I carry weapons everywhere I go. I've carried an obsidian knife into court just to see if I could.
It's not "badass" either. There's nothing badass about being an armed psycho. It's just normal. Almost every animal on earth bears weapons.

He should use some Oil Sharks for Bussiness with oil in thirld world countries, boys that did it before.
For example, the biggest deal with resources made in Africa was done by a relative of a relative of mine. 50 bilion in one transaction. He is one of the biggest sharks. He should hire him, Frank Timis not some stupid idiots from offices.
