HOUSTON, Oct 22 (Reuters) - For the past four years, the United States protected oil refiner Citgo Petroleum from creditors seeking to seize Venezuela's foreign crown jewel for billions of dollars in claims. But on Monday, a U.S. judge will kick off an auction expected to place the Houston-based company in the hands of rivals or investors.
The auction could start a new chapter for the 113-year-old company, which has been owned by Venezuela for almost 40 years. An unknown is whether Biden administration's decision last week to ease energy sanctions on Venezuela could allow the country to repay creditors and end the lawsuit.
A senior U.S. State Department official in Washington last week said in a briefing the sanctions easing should not affect the auction. The U.S. separately extended Citgo's protection from creditors until January.
Reuters has tracked the court case for more than a year and has spoken with nearly two dozen people including employees, investors, board members, attorneys, U.S. officials, rivals and creditors involved with the company. The story they tell is one of miscalculations and a federal judge determined to make Venezuela pay its debts.
Citgo likely will end up next year in the hands of one or more of the largest refiners operating in the U.S., potentially leaving Venezuela with nothing, according to the people most closely involved.

August is always a great time to short oil. Free money every year until it’s not.

" 5 million barrels"
out of 320(ish) million that the Gov sold....... yea, it's chevron's fault.
I’m still raffing at the retards who were going bullish on oil claiming $250 per barrel possible last year.
You’d literally have a world wide forced change of government if oil hit $150 per barrel and stayed there for longer than 6 months.

A day before the EIA released its latest estimate, the American Petroleum Institute reported its own estimate showed an inventory build in crude oil and in fuels over the week to December 1, which sent oil prices even lower.
Per the EIA, fuels last week booked inventory increases.
In gasoline, the authority reported an estimate inventory build of 5.4 million barrels for last week. This compared with a build of 1.8 million barrels for the previous week.

This is all getting you ready and primed for the election, it is a no lose for them.....not like the election matters, then why do this....easy it is the road to their goal, destruction of the USA.
If they "win" the price of gas will start to rise on Nov 6, and I have little doubt it will be well over $5 in many places inside of a year after the election. If Trump wins it will still go up, but media will be blaming Trump saying look how cheap it was under Biden, you wanted this here it is. Like I said they can't loose with this. How many stories do you see about the oil reserve?
Thing is people will buy it, be happy and buy their new Tesla and think they are so smart and try to justify it to the moon. All the while they are the true idiots that can't see, or refuse to see the truth.
Then get ready for your power to be limited....you know for the greater good, you can't charge at home unless you are in a specific group of folk. People will get grumpy and they will give just enough back to keep fingers off triggers.
We are so screwed.

Saudi Arabia recently released a statement that they are going to increase pumping to kill our production in the Permian basin. I expect prices to get lower as the fight for market share heats up.
