Spain's Repsol confirms Venezuela's gas reserves
Published on Friday, October 16, 2009

CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) -- Spain's Repsol YPF on Thursday confirmed a natural gas site off the coast of Venezuela contained reserves of between 5.6 trillion and 7.8 trillion cubic feet of gas, the largest such discovery in the country's history.

Repsol announced in September that in a venture with Italy's ENI, had found a gas block with estimated reserves of around 8 trillion cubic feet -- one of the world's top five gas discoveries in 2009.

"For the block's development, Venezuela's state oil company PDVSA will hold 35 percent of the consortium, with Repsol and Eni holding 32.5 percent participation each," the Spanish company said in a statement.

Despite a wave of energy sector nationalizations by socialist President Hugo Chavez, Repsol says it remains comfortable with its operations in OPEC-nation Venezuela, including its project in the Orinoco heavy oil belt.

With 180 trillion cubic feet of gas, Venezuela holds 30 percent of reserves in Latin America, well above Bolivia's 27 trillion cubic feet, but below the massive reserves held by Russia and Iran.

Dutch provide tax haven for multi-nationals and super-rich By Rohan Minogue


dpa German Press Agency
Published: Tuesday December 5, 2006

By Rohan Minogue, Amsterdam- The Netherlands has allowed itself to become a tax haven for thousands of foreign companies, whose real presence is often little more than an Amsterdam postbox number. While the results are clearly beneficial to the treasury, the potential damage to the country's international standing is great. During the course of 2006, the number of foreign companies establishing a financial presence on Dutch soil rose by 50 per cent over the previous year - or by about 1,600 new companies.

The Netherlands: A Tax Haven?

http://somo.nl/html/paginas/pdf/netherlands_tax_haven_2006_NL.pdf

Amsterdam link to tax havens
11 November 2006 – Dutch tax regulations make it an attractive country for multinational corporations that want to evade taxes and launder money, according to a report published today. All major trust offices involved are located in Amsterdam.

Research carried out by the Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO) shows that foreign companies route financial flows through the Netherlands to tax havens such as the Netherlands Antilles. They use almost 20,000 ‘mailbox companies’ that are often managed by trust offices.

For the Netherlands, such constructions yield 2,500 jobs and over one and a half billion euros in taxes and other income. On the other hand, they undermine developing countries’ capacity to raise taxes and facilitate money laundering. In addition, companies with a dubious reputation are attracted. An example is Trafigura, the company involved in the Ivory Coast toxic waste dump.

The First Curaçao bank was closed down by the Dutch last month and is suspected by Dutch and British authorities of having run banking services which allowed criminals to siphon billions of pounds out of European treasuries via carousel fraud. The fraud involves acquisition of VAT-free goods, which are then sold on at VAT-inclusive prices, the tax never being paid to the authorities.

Regarding Ryan Poff.......

Well, if that doesn't tell it all - right there in black and white - I don't know what else would.

Silvetti hired this guy in December 2007 to be an IN HOUSE project mgr.  And he was in charge of the Persistence.

And he has/had access to "all things Holloway" that were stripped off the ship once it returned to port.

I very highly doubt that this guy would:

a - Go to work for someone "In House" (meaning excluding all other independant contracts that might come his way) for "pennies on the dollar" as we were told all people were being paid who were involved with this

b - Forsake all other contracts that may come his way in favor of a humanitarian mission that doesn't require someone of his skills and expertise anyway.

I also VERY highly doubt that Silvetti would hire someone on for this sole purpose.....

And what in the world is the R/V Ferrel anyway?  that's not a ship Silvetti has listed in his fleet.  I think I'll look into that one...

Ryan Poff’s Experience
Field Project Manager
Poff Offshore Services
(Oil & Energy industry)

December 2007 — Present (1 year 11 months)

RIL eyes oil refiners in US, Europe

Nevin John / Mumbai October 20, 2009, 0:34 IST

The company feels valuations are low and the demand would later rise.

Mukesh Ambani, after completing the world’s largest oil refining complex at Jamnagar in Gujarat, has now set his eyes on owning refining assets in the US and Europe.

His Reliance Industries (RIL) has initiated preliminary discussions with US-based refiners such as Valero Energy Corp, Sunoco Inc and Flying J Inc for acquiring refineries, said sources in the know. Royal Dutch Shell’s three refineries in Europe are also on the Indian refiner’s radar, they added.

Two senior officials said RIL was gearing to acquire assets worth $3-4 billion (in the range of Rs 14,000-18,500 crore). Funds for acquisition will not be an issue, as it is sitting on a cash reserve of $5 billion (Rs 25,000 crore).

“As value depreciation is still very much an issue with refining assets in the US and Europe, RIL feels the timing is perfect for an acquisition. We are keen to have a global presence in refining, especially with some assets in the developed economies,” said an executive who did not wish to be named.

Last week, RIL senior Vice-President Maurice Bannayan said, “We are in advanced talks with looking at refinery and petrochemical units for acquisition in the US and Europe, mostly in the US.”

When asked, Valero spokesperson Bill Day said, “Valero has had its refinery in Aruba (in the Caribbean) available for sale since 2007, and we said we would aggressively seek strategic alternatives – which could include a sale – for our refineries in New Jersey and Delaware. Valero does not identify the parties that have expressed an interest in any of our properties.”

Virginia Parker, director of Marketing at Flying J, said: “We have no comment at this time. All matters surrounding sale of assets are subject to strict confidentiality requirements.” Sunoco officials declined to comment.

A RIL spokesperson said, “As a corporate policy, we do not comment on speculation.”

Many European petroleum giants have put their refineries on the block after a slump in demand for fuels and petrochemical products. These refineries are either running at lower profit margins or have shut, said a Mumbai-based analyst. However, RIL feels there are signs of recovery in these markets and once the financial situation improves, the demand would trek high.

After the crash of financial markets, Valero had cut costs at plants at Paulsboro in New Jersey and Delaware City and pursued “strategic alternatives” for them and the shuttered 235,000 barrels per day (bpd) Aruba refinery, Chief Executive Officer Bill Klesse said in a recent memo to employees. Previously, Valero, which operates 18 refineries throughout the US, Canada and the Caribbean, used the term strategic alternatives when it put a refinery up for sale.

The Paulsboro refinery is in the same New Jersey county as the refinery Sunoco is shutting. Sunoco recently announced plans to indefinitely shut its 145,000 bpd Eagle Point refinery at Westville in New Jersey, furlough 400 workers and halve its dividend, as the continuing recession hurts the US refiner’s profits.

Weak demand for refined products during the financial downturn, coupled with increased capacity, has pressured margins through the industry, and it is the right time for RIL to buy refineries at low cost, analysts said.

Big West Oil LLC, which has two refineries in the US, has halted taking deliveries after parent Flying J filed for bankruptcy. Big West’s Bakersfield refinery has a processing capacity of 68,000 bpd, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Big West also has a 30,000 bpd plant in Salt Lake City.

Swiss-based refiner Petroplus said earlier this year it would sell its Teesside refinery in the UK by the end of June or turn it into a storage site if no buyer can be found. The 1,17,000 bpd plant stopped production in March 2009, when the company stopped buying crude for it.

Shell has been looking to sell its Harburg and Heide refineries in Germany for the past six months. In August, sources said India’s Essar Oil had given a bid for both refineries, as well as for Stanlow, Shell’s another refinery in the UK. Harburg has a capacity to process 110,000 bpd, while Heide can process 93,000 bpd. Stanlow has a capacity to process 267,000 bpd.

Other refineries up for sale in Europe include Italian firm Eni’s Livorno refinery and Swiss-based Petroplus’ Teesside refinery.

RIL is also eyeing the fuel retailing markets of the US and Europe, more than a year after it closed retail operations in India. Selling petrol directly in the US market could save the company a 5 to 10 per cent additional cost as traders’ commission, and the company has approached the US authorities for approval to start direct fuel sales.

From an article HotPing posted:

Much to our surprise, the Aruban government, seemingly unconnected to any of Ansary's intentions, suddenly and clandestinely, created a government oil company in parliament. Many elected officials in parliament were stunned by the sudden tabling of such a proposition. Yet, in one session, Aruba became from devoid of any oil interests into a country awarding concessions for oil and gas exploration. And, in parliament, it was revealed, for the first time, that some seven "secret" inquiries were in hand, requesting oil and gas exploration permits off the shores of Aruba.

Search for oil and gas resumed

ARUBA - The Parliament had authorized the government to found the Aruban oil company, Compania Arubiano di Petroleo (CAP). The idea is that this public enterprise negotiates with companies that want a concession for the search for oil and gas in the Aruban territorial waters. "Seven companies have already shown interest in the search for oil and gas in the past four years", told Prime Minister Nelson Oduber (MEP) the Parliament.
-----------------

OK - so what Aruban people comprise this government oil company?

Venezuela says no new Orinoco areas after Carabobo
Published on Friday, October 2, 2009

CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) -- Venezuela will not assign any new areas in the Orinoco oil belt after it completes an auction for its Carabobo project, the Venezuelan state-run oil company PDVSA said on Thursday.

The company said in a statement it would accept offers for the seven blocks in the Carabobo project in January, putting a date on a bidding process that has been repeatedly delayed.

Venezuela Energy Minister Rafael Ramirez met with representatives from companies interested in participating in Carabobo on Wednesday and outlined other Orinoco projects Venezuela is working on with Russia, China and Vietnam, the statement said.

"Once those projects are finished, no new areas will be assigned and PDVSA will focus on developing these blocks, which should help increase production to 2.8 million barrels a day," PDVSA said.

On Wednesday, a source close to the talks told Reuters Venezuela is studying changes in the royalties scheme for Carabobo in what could be the first time President Hugo Chavez lowers levies on energy production by foreign companies. 

The Carabobo Project aims to build three upgraders to turn the Orinoco belt's tar-like crude into oil for exports and produce around 1.2 million barrels per day, with the initial investment seen between $10 billion and $20 billion per area.

Companies that have shown interest in the tender include Britain's BP, US-based Chevron, China's state-owned CNPC, Spain's Repsol YPF, France's Total, Italian ENI and Portugal's Galp Energia.


 

Well helllooooooooooooooooo China!

Something has me taking a closer look at China for this project........ an angelic monkey

Aruba Premier Expects Agreement With PetroChina Soon, ANP Says
in-en.com  2009-9-21 23:28:29   
- +

Aruban Prime Minister Nelson Oduber expects to be able to agree soon with PetroChina Co. about the sale of a Valero Energy Corp. refinery on the island, Dutch news agency ANP reported, citing the politician.

The refinery is placed ¡°

well in the market¡± given the $16 billion oil exploration agreement between China and Venezuela earlier this month, the Dutch-language agency cited Oduber as saying in a report dated Sept. 20. Talks are under way, he said, according to ANP. Aruba is in the southern Caribbean Sea, north of Venezuela.

San Antonio-based Valero said in July it was continuing talks with PetroChina over the sale of the 275,000 barrel-a-day facility that had been idled because of poor refining margins. The Chinese government has been encouraging its oil companies to buy overseas assets in the global economic slowdown and last week agreed to invest $16 billion in Venezuela to boost oil production

Be Curious to know exactly how long Valero has been negotiating with Petrochina..

Aruba is again looking for oil

ORANGE CITY - There has been some time interest in drilling for oil in the waters around Aruba. Compania di Arubano Petroleo (CAP) has been for several months in discussions with a European oil company to test drilling east and north of the island.

"We are now in a very preliminary stage," said Armando curette, director of the Compania di Arubano Petroleo (CAP), also deputy director at DOW. The state as the exclusive rights holder may only detect oil and win and retain the exclusive right to negotiate with others about this. Namely for oil is too expensive to Aruba alone. While there is currently talk of oil, is also considered one other mineral: gas. Recently, the Spanish Repsol and Italian ENI less than 100 kilometer away a large gas field found in the Golfo de la Vela behind the peninsula of Paraguana. In the Gulf of Venezuela is a large amount of gas found. "This indicates that in this region therefore be possible," said curette.

During the last election campaign was the presence of gas under the seabed Aruban also a discussion point. Curette, the possibility of a gas bubble in our waters weldegelijk in his mind. Indeed, from the drilling in 1989 and 1990 showed that the soil type around the island more suitable for the extraction of gas than oil. However, the priority is the extraction of black gold. "These companies always first drilling for oil because the demand for them is greatest. This is no different when we are holding talks with it. "Curette currently says no to draw level when these talks will be finalized and will be really bored. He also wants to keep expectations muted. "Within a small area, the geology is very different. You will very quickly end up in an area with other rocks, temperature and breaks in the landscape. What 100 or even 10 kilometer removed from us can be very different. "

Dry holes
CAP has, since its reestablishment as a State in 2006, where companies tried to get close to the island to drill. "The oil companies run by at least open the door flat," said curette. This is due to the fact that this type of drilling is very expensive and, despite advanced technology, still an issue of gambling is. In addition, a series of previous drilling in Aruba turned to nothing. "In 1989 and 1990 three companies have been drilling south and west of the island. But that proved so called "dry holes" to be. Then there was a question of experience offered here for a chance to drill. Now it's more a matter of self-access business. "

Oil giant Chevron recently drilled just north of the Aruban sea. Director curette: "Also there was not enough oil to sit for commercial exploitation. But after the discoveries in Zulia and Paraguana let them know what might still be found there. That is good news, but also a nonsense story of Chevron. You see, the competition between oil companies is tough. Chevron may have lost much money with drilling and wants to see the same competitors they do. "

WE HAVE A CONNECTION BETWEEN ODUBER WANTING

On 4-28-06 ARUBAAN's news-sourced "Aruba Tradewinds Times" reported:

China Wants to Make Aruba Its Gateway to South America

Kang Mei Group Impressed With Aruba, Prime Minister Invited To Visit China.


ORANJESTAD-The Prime Minister of Aruba, Nelson Oduber has received a formal invitation to visit the firm Kang Mei International Company based in the city of Chiu Chih-Huang, China. Kang Mei Group is busy in positioning itself strategically towards the Latin American market and is interested in Aruba as the Chinese gateway to South America.

Kang Mei Group visited Aruba in March 2006 and held talks with Greg Peterson (Director, Aruba Freezone) and the Prime Minister. The group is very impressed with the island infrastructure and economic performance.

The intention of Kang Mei Group is to organize a trade exhibition in Aruba in October 2006. The goal of the exhibition is to attract a hundred Chinese companies to Aruba to showcase their products at the convention center. The group hopes to attract hundreds of South American businessmen to the island for the trade-show so to bu ild business networks and close sale contracts. Kang Mei Group will open two "Aruba Promotion Offices" in China, one in the megalopolis of Beijing and the other in Guangzhou (Kanton). The costs of the promotion offices in China are completely covered by the Chinese. The offices are part of the strategy to convert Aruba into the Chinese gateway to South America. The purpose of the offices is to convince Chinese businessmen to participate at the first trade exhibition in Aruba organized by the group.

Oduber is invited to officially open the promotion offices in China next month.
The representatives of Kang Mei-Group have arranged a large number of meetings for the Prime Minister with top Chinese officials and business representatives.

The Chinese economy is growing at a very fast pace and the eyes of China are set on doing business with South America. Oduber will make use of the invitation as a great opportun ity to build on solid economic ties between China and Aruba. One of the goals of Oduber is to diversify Aruba's tourism sector that is at present very dependent on the U.S.

Prime Minister Nelson Oduber will visit China in May with a delegation consisting out of 3 additional persons that include Augustine Vrolijk (Director Foreign Affairs), Frendsel Giel (Assistant Managing Director, Aruba Investment Bank) and Greg Peterson (Director, Freezone Aruba).

Prime Minister Nelson Oduber(r) explaining what Aruba has to offer to Chinese investors.


ARUBA – A Chinese oil-refinery has shown interest in exploring and exploiting of oil and gas in the territorial waters around Aruba. Prime Minister Nelson Oduber (MEP) learned this during his visit to China.


On this trip, Oduber was accompanied by amongst others director of the Foreign Relations Administration (DBB) Agustin Vrolijk, director of the Free Zone Greg Peterson, and interim-director Aruban Investment Bank Frendsel Giel. Together with a representative of China Brazil Development Office, the Aruban delegation visited the PetroChina Fuel Oil Company that showed interest in exploring and exploiting of oil and gas in the territorial waters around Aruba. At the end of the visit, a representative of the Chinese refinery made it clear that the company would like to talk to Aruban business- and investments experts.

Karel van Oosterom, interim ambassador for the Royal Dutch Kingdom gave a reception in honour of the Aruban delegation, during which Oduber gave a presentation on “what the smallest island in the western hemisphere has to offer to the biggest country in the eastern hemisphere’ to representatives of the Chinese government, Chinese investors, representatives of countries in the region, and the media in Beijing. The presentation was in English and an interpreter translated his words for the Chinese listeners.

He talked about the possibilities that Aruba has to offer to investors and products from China that Aruba can import to the Latin American region, the Caribbean, and North America via gateway.

There was also another reception in honour of the Aruban delegation given by the KangMei Group, during which Oduber received a poster with more than 100 good wishes.
