Den prensa internacional a sali tambe cu e acuerdo ta cu Citgo Aruba aunke gobierno mes a declara cu a firma contract cu Citgo Petroleum, e subsidario di e compania di petroleo Venezolano PDVSA, na Merca.

A firma un MOU?
Un otro cos cu hopi hende a comenta riba dje ta cu ta parce cu gobierno di Aruba a firma un MOU pues no un contracto final diabierna na Caracas. Esaki pasobra nan a mira durante e transmision bibo for di Venezuela wordo menciona ‘ firma del memorando de entendimiento. estudios tecnico y comerciales para suministro de gas’. Bon Dia a puntra minister De Meza y e negociado principal di banda di Aruba, Richard Arends pa un aclaracion. Pero te ainda no a ricibi esaki. Mester remarca si cu durante e transmision tambe a menciona cu ta firmando diferente convenio entre Aruba y Venezuela. Pues e MOU por ta un di e acuerdonan cu gobierno a firma y specificamente pa cu e tubo cu ta planea pa core entre nos pais y Venezuela pa suministra e gas pe refineria na San Nicolas.
Awe Associated Press (AP) tambe a saca e siguiente noticia unda ta menciona Citgo Aruba cu lo bay inverti 450 pa 650 miyon pa reactiva e refineria na San Nicolas. Pero manera menciona e compania aki no a deposita niun capital ainda, segun registro di Camara di Comercio. Otro punto ta cu e refineria no ta di gobierno di Aruba ainda. Doño ainda ta Valero y te awor no tin bista riba ki dia e compania lo traspasa esaki pa gobierno pa 1 dollar, manera minister Mike de Meza a bisa 13 di mei. AP si ta papia di un deal di lease ‘under the agreement between the Aruban government and the U.S.-based subsidiary of Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA’ . Pues cu e compania Citgo na Merca.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Citgo Aruba announced Saturday it will invest $450 million to $650 million to reactivate an oil refinery in Aruba that has been idle since 2012.
The company said Saturday in a statement that the facility in San Nicolas will be retrofitted over the next 18 to 24 months. The refinery is expected to process up to 209,000 barrels per day of Venezuelan extra-heavy crude into intermediate crude. It will then send the oil to its U.S. refining network for further processing.
Citgo has a 15-year operational lease with a 10-year extension option under the agreement between the Aruban government and the U.S.-based subsidiary of Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA. Officials signed the deal during a ceremony in Caracas on Friday.
“This is a very strong project from both the technical and financial perspective. It is a strategic partnership that will benefit Citgo Aruba, PDVSA, Venezuela and Aruba,” said Citgo Petroleum Corp. President and CEO Nelson P. Martinez.
The refinery will process oil from the Orinoco Oil Belt, the largest oil reservoir in the world, Martinez added. Officials said they are also considering a complementary project to pipe natural gas from Venezuela’s Paraguana region to Aruba, which is 17 miles off the South American nation’s coast. Aruban government officials said last month they were closing in a deal to reopen the refinery and said it is an important economic development project for the country. The refinery previously employed 700 workers and was operated by Valero Energy Corp.
