Washington-Caracas agreement grants NABEP the oilfields
NABEP, controlled by Alejandro Betancourt, was granted 100-year rights to 17 oilfields holding an estimated 65 billion barrels of reserves, without a competitive process.
The Pentagon has stepped beyond procurement into sovereign equity, holding penny warrants that lock in a 35 percent position in NABEP while the venture raises capital. The deal also gives the Defense Department a right of first offer on 20 percent of output at production cost — a discounted strategic fuel guarantee for a post-Maduro Venezuela.
Washington used penny warrants — call options with token strike prices — to protect its 35 percent stake in NABEP from dilution as the project raises development capital. The structure also grants dividends before exercise and off-take rights on 20 percent of output at cost, making it a case study in sovereign deal structuring.
The U.S. is backing the revival of 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan crude through NABEP's 100-year, no-bid concession to 17 oilfields. The Pentagon-backed deal sharpens the tension between energy security and climate goals while reviving a collapsed producer.

CISA is using Anthropic’s AI model Mythos to scan federal code repositories for security weaknesses, uncovering a large number of vulnerabilities. The move accelerates the government’s capacity to hunt down exploitable bugs, though it raises questions about AI-driven false positives and oversight. This exclusive report signals a pivotal shift in how the U.S. defends its digital infrastructure.
The U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA is using Anthropic’s Mythos AI for national-security code audits, a powerful validation as the AI startup prepares for its IPO. The engagement comes months after Anthropic clashed with the Pentagon over AI weaponization safeguards, making the government’s embrace a dramatic shift. This could boost investor confidence and open doors for further public-sector AI adoption.
