#GlobalOil 🛢️ Venezuela Has the Largest Proven Oil Reserves on Earth — roughly 303 billion barrels, or about 17% of the world’s total oil reserve base. That’s more than Saudi Arabia, Iran, Canada, and the U.S. combined.
That alone is massive. But the real shock isn’t just in the number — it’s in the geopolitical shift currently unfolding around it.
President Trump, after the U.S. military’s capture of Nicolás Maduro and ongoing political turmoil in Venezuela, has signaled intentions to rebuild the country’s oil sector and integrate it into U.S. and Western markets — potentially directing future oil revenue toward U.S. and Venezuelan interests.
For decades under sanctions and political strife, Venezuela’s oil industry collapsed from outputs above 3.5 million barrels per day in the 1970s to well under 1 million bpd today, meaning the country produces less than 1 % of global supply despite having the largest resource base.
U.S. policy actions now include capturing Venezuelan oil infrastructure and marketing stored crude, moves that could reshape long-standing trade flows that once directed Venezuelan oil predominantly to buyers like China. PetroChina has already reportedly paused imports of Venezuelan crude now marketed under U.S. control, underscoring the delicate shift in global energy relationships.
However, this isn’t a simple “supply boost” story. Restoring Venezuela’s production capacity to even a fraction of its potential will take years of investment and legal reform, and the current infrastructure is severely deteriorated from decades of underinvestment and sanctions.
⚠️ Why this matters globally:
Venezuela’s oil reserve dominance gives it enormous strategic leverage if it ever reaches higher production levels. A shift in oil export patterns could redirect flows away from China and toward the U.S. and Western buyers, altering geopolitical energy balances. The very possibility of unlocking this resource under a pro-Western regime has already sparked market discussion about long-term oil supply, investment, and geopolitical strategy.
This isn’t just about barrels —
It’s about who ultimately controls a titan of the global energy system.

海上取り締まりの報告が地政学的リスクを高める🚨
#Geopolitics <t-17/>#OilMarkets $XRP #GlobalRisk
未確認の報告によると、フランスは地中海でロシアの原油タンカーを押収したとされており、国際的な制裁に違反したとしている。これが確認されれば、これまでのヨーロッパにおける最も積極的な海上取り締まり行動の一つとなるだろう。
この展開は単一の船舶を超えたものです。エネルギー輸出はロシアの収入の中心であり、石油輸送の中断は経済的圧力を高めます。
