The two Western companies' technical legacy in Venezuela could offer competitors a chance to acquire expertise in drilling sophisticated wells, upgrading crude-oil quality and preventing costly accidents, analysts say. Access to this knowledge could prove to be a boon for national oil companies, which control the world's largest deposits yet often depend on technology developed by the private-sector Western companies to access their oil.
As empresas que podem ocupar o lugar da Exxon e da Conoco são a Petropars (Irã), Oil & Natural Gas (Índia), Lukoil (Rússia), National Petroleum (China) e Petrobrás.
A tecnologia que a Exxon e a Conoco usaram no Orinoco está disponível no mercado se as empresas pagarem um preço elevado. Mas o controle operacional será da PDVSA.
One of the most valuable pieces of expensive technology used in the Orinoco Belt is ConocoPhillips's delayed coking process, which converts viscous oil into lighter crude.
