  • When did Venezuela start refining oil?
  • By the end of 1917, the first refining operations began at the San Lorenzo refinery to process the Mene Grande field production, and the first significant exports of Venezuelan oil by Caribbean Petroleum left from the San Lorenzo terminal.‌
  • When was the first oil field discovered in Venezuela?
  • In 1914, Venezuela’s first important heavy oil field, Mene Grade, was discovered. Initial production from the shallow sands located at 550 feet averaged 264 barrel per day per well of oil with API gravity down to 10.5°. In 1956, steam injection was tested in Mene Grade; however, steam from the shallow formation erupted at the surface.‌
  • How did Venezuela become a major oil supplier?
  • By 1922, Venezuela had become an important supplier of oil in the world, with the biggest reserves discovered in the Lake of Maracaibo. During World War II, Venezuela was the most secure provider of oil to the United States. In September, 1960, The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) was created in Baghdad, Iraq.‌
  • When did Venezuela become a major oil producer?
  • By the end of 1918, petroleum appeared for the first time on the Venezuelan export statistics at 21,194 metric tons. It was the blowout of the Barroso No. 2 well in Cabimas in 1922 that marked the beginning of Venezuela's modern history as a major producer. This discovery captured the attention of the nation and the world.‌
  • When did the non- petroleum industries grow in Venezuela?
  • Obscured by oil's dominant role in the economy, other industries in Venezuela grew slowly until the mid-seventies. In terms of the over- all development process in Venezuela, the expansion of the non- petroleum industries has been documented from 1936 to the mid-sev-‌
  • When did the oil boom start in Venezuela?
  • In terms of the over- all development process in Venezuela, the expansion of the non- petroleum industries has been documented from 1936 to the mid-sev- The oil boom of the mid-seventies and early eighties, however, began to undermine the orderly growth of industry in Venezuela.
