Its output of crude has nearly doubled in the past six years, from 525,000 b/d in 2005 to a daily average of 914,000 last year. But as exploration pushes deep into the country's eastern lowlands, oil companies face a familiar problem in rural Colombia: security. Emerald Energy, a British subsidiary of China's Sinochem, has endured repeated attacks by the FARC guerrillas on its small Ombu field in Caqueta. Security officials in the area say the FARC is demanding $10 for each barrel of oil. Several things lie behind the oil boom.

Private firms were no longer required to form partnerships with Ecopetrol, the state oil company. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
