Venezuela, Guatemala
Sign Energy
Agreement
Caracas - Venezuela and
Guatemala have signed an energy agreement to
guarantee Guatemala a daily supply of 20,000
barrels of crude and refined products, the
Venezuelan foreign ministry said Wednesday.
The agreement with Guatemala guarantees the
supply of crude oil, refined products and
liquefied natural gas from Venezuela for
even 20,000 barrels daily.
The agreement is part of the Petrocaribe
alliance launched by Venezuelan president
Hugo Chavez in June 2005, which allows
Caribbean nations to buy 185,000 barrels of
oil daily.
The Petrocaribe is formed by 18 countries.
Guatemala joined the bloc in 2008 in
Maracaibo city, western Venezuela. |
