#1 Much of that oil is very high sulphur glop that is more like sludge than oil.

#4 How much damage can Chavez's cow-handed clowns do to the fields through mis-management and neglect? Is it still technically recoverable if ignorant politically-appointed imbeciles step on their own dicks in the process of failing to learn on the job?

#6 So how come the good ol' USofA is examining geological resources and commenting on them for countries not so very friendly to us? first the revealing of all the mineral wealth in Afghanistan and now Hoogo's oil reserves?
Why don't we bill them for the consulting effort?

#8 Most of the oil from Venezuela is crap and only a few refineries in the world are capable of refining it. This is a case of an overabundance of something very few people want. Oil shale would be more economical to process than this crude.
