Venezuelan government to invest US$1.5 billion in Curacao's Isla refinery...

El Universal: Venezuela's government promised to invest US$1.5 billion in Curacao's Isla refinery, which has been shut down for the last 10 days due to power failures, a refinery spokesman told Curacao newspapers, Wednesday.

The project, aimed at improving productivity and quality of by-products manufactured by Curacao's 320,000 bpd refinery, will run from 2011-2015, said refinery spokesman Kenneth Gijsbertha to Curacao newspapers Extra and Vigilante.

A Curacao court ruled last year that the state-run oil company Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) must upgrade the aging refinery, which was opened early last century, to meet environmental standards, Reuters reported.

About 1,000 workers went on strike last week to request repairs in the unit that provides water and electricity to the refinery. Meanwhile, Venezuela has threatened to terminate the leasing contract.

Our editorial statement reads:
VHeadline.com Venezuela is a wholly independent e-publication promoting democracy in its fullest expression and the inalienable right of all Venezuelans to self-determination and the pursuit of sovereign independence without interference. Our stance is decidedly pro-governance (defined as being contrary to anarchy) and pro-government to the extent that we support all and any government policies aimed at consolidating and improving the living conditions and future prosperity of ALL Venezuelans, regardless of race, color or creed. We also seek to shed an international spotlight on nefarious practices and corruption which, for decades, has strangled this South American nation's development and progress. In every respect VHeadline Venezuela's declared editorial bias is most definitely pro-Constitutional, pro-Democracy and pro-VENEZUELA.
