Venezuela's Corruption Exposed

Message to INFODIO readers: investigative journalism, which is what this site does, takes lots of time. Visiting media looking for a quick run down on Venezuela's gargantuan corruption, have the decency to at least cite the source when plagiarising this site's content without attribution (exhibit Reuters here and here, exhibit Bloomberg here, exhibit OCCRP here). To all readers, do the right thing, the honest thing: support independent investigative journalism, help us expose rampant corruption. Note added 28/06/2021: impostors are using INFODIO's former editor's full name, and a fake email address (alek.boyd.arregui at gmail.com) to send copyright infringement claims / take down requests to web hosting companies (exhibit Hostgator). The attempt is yet another effort paid by corrupt thugs to erase information about their criminal activities. Infodio.com has no issues with other websites / journalists using / posting information published here, so long as the source is properly cited.

PDVSA exported over 16 million barrels of crude in August

4 años ago By Alek Boyd

PDVSA has found a way to beat sanctions from U.S. Department of the Treasury. According to shipping line up data seen by this site, it exported a total of 16.5 million barrels of crude in August. Spain's Repsol, Italy's ENI and India's Reliance regularly lifted crude. In addition, new completely unknown and dodgy operators associated to Alex Saab's network continued taking crude to Singapore, for StS transfer onto China-bound cargoes.

Shamrium, Zervekas, Novosi Solutions, Delta LLC, Xiamen Logistic Grass are / were shells controlled by proxies of Saab (Axel Capriles and Joaquín Leal Jiménez), liquidated after one or two deals, and replaced by others such as Ztianjin Business, Wanneng M Unay, Kalinin Bussines, and Kasian Petrochemical.

Off-the-book trading activity, like that involving Eurotankers and TIPCO, is not featured in PDVSA's shipping line up. 

Tankers involved in August were: 

- DELTA TOLMI
- XENA
- FREEDOM
- DELTA ATLANTICA
- PARNASO
- BORA
- TOYA
- DELTA KANARIS
- BIRDIE
- OTOMAN
- SANTA MARINA
- ARITA
- DELTA IOS
