Oil loading in Venezuela slows, more ships make U-turns after new US interceptions
U.S. seizures and a cyberattack on PDVSA have left millions of barrels stuck, with most tankers confined to domestic moves or turning back, disrupting Venezuela’s oil exports.
- On Monday, tanker loading in Venezuela dwindled, with most ships moving oil only between domestic ports.
- U.S. enforcement activity this month has included the U.S. Coast Guard seizing a sanctioned supertanker and trying to intercept two more vessels over the weekend, while PDVSA is slowly restoring systems after a cyberattack last week.
- Ship-Monitoring data indicate multiple loaded tankers remain at anchor, with PDVSA delivering a 1.9 million-barrel cargo to the Aruba-flagged sanctioned vessel Azure Voyager at Jose port.
- Market data show immediate price gains and authorised exports while other cargoes stall, with Brent crude futures rising 2.17% to $61.78 a barrel and U.S. WTI increasing 2.2% to $57.77 on Monday after the U.S. actions.
- Venezuelan officials and allies have protested, with Yvan Gil calling U.S. seizures `acts of piracy` and China’s Foreign Ministry condemning them as serious international law violations amid a U.S. military pressure campaign.
