Delcy Rodríguez: the CPPs will allow the country to become a giant producer
Acting President Delcy Rodríguez asserted that with the Hydrocarbons Law Reform, the country will be able to attract significant flows of international and national investment and enter a new stage of growth to guarantee the future and the social and economic well-being of the Venezuelan people.
TL;DR

- These models are designed to respect Venezuelan sovereignty while increasing oil and gas production.
- The CPP model has been successful with companies like North American Blue Energy Partners (NABEP) and Chevron, leading to increased production.

- Current investment in hydrocarbon production participation contracts is nearly $900 million, with an estimated $1.4 trillion for 2026.
