雪佛龙周三表示，在获得原油丰富的奥里诺科 belt 地区额外开采区块后，该公司计划未来五年在委内瑞拉投资70亿美元，将该国的石油产量翻倍。
作为唯一一家在委内瑞拉开展业务的美国石油企业，雪佛龙在一份声明中表示，这笔投资将使其石油产量提升至约每日60万桶，是当前产能的两倍。
此次声明发布前，特朗普总统已于8月28日宣布与委内瑞拉达成协议，成立一家私人合资企业，运营坐拥650亿桶石油储量的油田。雪佛龙周三透露，该公司在委内瑞拉开采石油的成本约为每桶20美元。
“凭借更优惠的条款和额外的开采区块，我们正在强化业务组合，我们相信这将实现可观的低成本石油增产，助力能源供应，并创造独特的长期价值，”雪佛龙首席执行官迈克·沃思在声明中说道。
雪佛龙表示，该公司已获得开发奥里诺科 belt 地区相邻的卡拉沃博1号以及卡拉沃博-2-南区区块的权利。

Chevron plans to double oil production in Venezuela with $7 billion investment

Chevron said on Wednesday that it plans to invest $7 billion in Venezuela over the next five years and double its oil production in the country after receiving additional acreage in the crude-rich Orinoco Belt region.
Chevron, the only U.S. oil company operating in Venezuela, said the investment will allow it to boost production to about 600,000 barrels a day, twice its current capacity, according to a statement.
The announcement comes after President Trump announced a deal on Aug. 28 with Venezuela to create a private joint venture to operate oil fields containing 65 billion barrels of petroleum. Chevron said on Wednesday that it costs the company about $20 per barrel to produce oil in Venezuela.
“With improved terms and additional acreage, we are strengthening a portfolio that we believe can deliver attractive low-cost oil growth, support energy supply and create differentiated long-term value,” Chevron CEO Mike Wirth said in the statement.
Chevron said it has been assigned rights to develop the adjacent Carabobo 1 and Carabobo-2-South-A areas in the Orinoco Belt.
