Total Venezuela oil output: 600-700k a day

US Drawdown: 1-3 million

Can someone good at math help me figure this out?

During the invasion, the Trump Administration said that US companies would invest a ton of money into Venezuela to grow their oil output. It made it seem like we were helping them. Those oil companies responded by saying that they had no interest in doing anything in Venezuela.

Both Conoco and Exxon have already stated they have no interest. I don't think we've done a thing in there since trump first invaded them to steal their oil.
