The president in charge of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, highlighted this Thursday the execution of the new Hydrocarbons Law, following the signing of a Framework Agreement and a Technical-Financial Alliance with the transnational Shell to boost hydrocarbon production in the country.

During the activity, Rodríguez recalled that Shell has been in Venezuela since 1914, “but I was remembering and I think it was before Shell arrived in Lake Guanopo. So we are very pleased to reach these agreements with Shell in the area of gas and oil.”

He stressed that with these cooperation initiatives “we are already giving life and execution to the new Hydrocarbons Law with new business models (...) The synergy that Venezuela can have with other countries of the world for the benefit of its country and its people.”

He also stressed that this demonstrates “that Venezuela has highly trained workers, high-ranking professionals in their performance to carry out all the challenges that our country needs.”
