Spanish energy interests in Venezuela

Overview

Spanish energy interests in Venezuela are navigating complex financial and regulatory landscapes. Repsol is managing significant asset exposure, which rose to 361 million euros by mid-2026, and is working to recover 4.08 billion euros in commercial accounts with PDVSA. The company continues to operate under U.S. Treasury OFAC general licenses to maintain production stability.

Simultaneously, Suelopetrol Exploración y Producción, S. L. has requested assistance from the Spanish government to protect its Venezuelan oil interests from being transferred to U.S. companies. This request follows a restructuring of the firm, which is now 95% controlled by the Swiss firm Ruve Beratung & Treuhand AG. The company is attempting to distance itself from the ‘Koldo case’ and seek official recognition of its new management by Venezuelan authorities.
