Chevron's Operations in Venezuela: Despite U.S. military pressure, Chevron remains the only U.S. company exporting crude from Venezuela without delays, with two ships recently departing for the U.S.
Compliance with Regulations: Chevron asserts that its operations are in full compliance with U.S. laws and sanctions, with about half of its oil production going to the Venezuelan government.
Impact on PDVSA and Oil Discounts: Venezuela's state-owned oil company PDVSA is facing demands for deeper discounts and revised contracts from its customers, particularly for crude sold to China.
Rising Costs for Shipping: The cost of shipping Venezuelan crude has increased due to a "war clause" requested by shipowners, reflecting concerns over potential disruptions from U.S. military activities in the region.
