  VENEZUELA ESTÁ QUEMANDO "UN SEGUNDO GURI" EN EL AIRE. LA ELECTRICIDAD QUE SE PODRÍA ESTAR GENERANDO En Venezuela se habla mucho de crisis eléctrica, pero poco del verdadero elefante en la habitación: el país desperdicia más gas del que muchos países producen , y ese gas que hoy simplemente se pierde, debería ser el combustible para una generación eléctrica firme, estable y económica. Este artículo explica, de forma clara y directa, cuánto gas se quema , cuánta electricidad podría generar , y qué significaría para el Sistema Eléctrico Nacional . 1. EL ESCENARIO ACTUAL: LÍDERES EN DESPERDICIO Venezuela es hoy el país con mayor intensidad de quema de gas en relación con su producción petrolera, la que apenas roza los 1,1 millones de barriles diarios . Esta situación se resume en cifras alarmantes: Producción Total de gas: ~4,000 millones de pies cúbicos diarios (MMcf/d). Gas Quemado o Venteado: ~2,000 MMcf/d. ¡Estamos desperdiciando el 51% de ...

It is the historic and structural core of Venezuela’s heavy industry. Thanks to a unique geological endowment and strategic geography, Guayana hosts one of the most integrated iron and steel industrial ecosystems in the Western Hemisphere—capable of transforming raw iron ore into high–value-added products such as hot briquetted iron (HBI) and finished steel . At a time when the global steel industry is under pressure to decarbonize, secure reliable raw materials, and diversify supply chains, Venezuela’s iron and steel platform deserves renewed attention from international investor s. THE INDUSTRIAL ECOSYSTEM: WHO IS WHO IN GUAYANA? The iron and steel value chain in Guayana is structured around three c...

  VENEZUELA’S ATLANTIC NICKEL BRIDGE: A STRATEGIC INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY As we move into 2026 and the global energy transition accelerates, critical minerals have become the backbone of industrial growth , electric mobility, and sustainable infrastructure. See: VENEZUELA 2026: THE NEW FRONTIER FOR CRITICAL MINERALS AND THE GLOBAL ENERGY TRANSITION Among these, nickel stands out as indispensable —fueling stainless steel production and powering the batteries that drive the electric vehicle revolution. Today, Venezuela offers investors a rare chance to secure a world-class nickel asset: Loma de Níquel , a brownfield project uniquely positioned to reshape supply chains across the Americas, an asset we call the Atlantic Nickel Bridge .       A Rare Opportunity: Brownfield Speed in a Greenfield World The mining industry is notoriously slow. A typical "greenfield" project—starting from scratch—can take several years to reach production. In today’s fast-moving ...
