Venezuela’s opposition has presented an emergency fuel import project that would require 17 medium-range product tankers.

The move represents a counter proposal to President Nicolas Maduro’s plan to trade with US-sanctioned countries.

Plan details

According to the supply blueprint reported by Argus Media, 13 MR tankers each with a carrying capacity of 340,000 barrels will be used to ship petroleum products from the US, Colombia, Curacao or Aruba to Venezuela every month.
