Recent developments show that Venezuelan crude oil exports are beginning to reopen after years of disruption under sanctions and geopolitical pressure. Reuters reports that the U.S. Treasury has issued a license to allow U.S. companies to support oil and gas production in Venezuela, aiming to revive output and exports.
Additionally, multiple energy trackers and news outlets report that Venezuela has sent its first crude oil shipment to Israel in several years, with the cargo reportedly destined for Israel’s Bazan Group refinery — the first such delivery since 2020.
These moves come as Venezuelan production is projected to return to pre‑blockade levels by mid‑2026, helped by expanded licensing and exports to buyers beyond China, including India, Spain, and the U.S. under new arrangements.

This shift in Venezuelan oil flows could be a catalyst for broader market responses, but the situation remains closely tied to political dynamics and ongoing regulatory changes.
