Venezuela ranks among the top three worldwide markets for U.S.-made oil and gas field machinery, averaging in recent years close to half a billion dollars in imports from the U.S. Natural gas exploration equipment, heavy crude producing and upgrading technologies, oil/gas deepwater equipment and services, sub-sea technologies, oil industry boat designers, rigs, and deep conversion technologies for refineries are the types of equipment and services currently in great demand. A briefing by the U.S. Commercial Service Venezuela and the President of the Venezuelan Petroleum Chamber at the luncheon programs will provide critical information on the oil and gas industry in Venezuela and details of key opportunities for Louisiana companies.
