Iranian Tanker Discharging Condensate in Venezuela
CARACAS (Reuters) -- An Iranian supertanker carrying about 2 million barrels of condensate this week began discharging at Venezuelan state-run oil company PDVSA’s main oil port, according to a company document and tanker tracking services. The Iranian-flagged very large crude carrier (VLCC) Starla, owned and managed by state-run National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC), arrived in Venezuelan waters on Friday, according to a PDVSA schedule of imports and exports seen by Reuters. The vessel was assisted by tugboats on Monday on its approach to PDVSA’s Jose port.
