Formerly known as Bella-1, the Marinera tanker was intercepted despite being escorted by Russian vessels.
North America dominates in terms of the number of new offshore pipelines set to become operational in 2026, but it doesn’t have the biggest.
The plan under consideration involves the US acquiring and marketing the majority of PDVSA's oil production.
By the end of the decade, this project is expected to generate 200mscf/d of gas, delivering sufficient energy to supply more than 300,000 homes per day.
The vessel, now renamed the Marinera, altered its route and switched its flag, transferring its registration from Guyana to Russia.
The first phase of the natural gas pipeline is scheduled to enter service in early 2029.
