Isla Refinery no longer paralyzed by sanctions

Local | By Correspondent May 6, 2019

WILLEMSTAD - Companies in the United States may continue to do business with the Isla-refinery in Curaçao. Despite the sanctions against Venezuelan operator PdVSA.

 

The US Department of Finance has issued a waiver to Curaçao. That applies until January 15, 2020. The exact content of the safeguard is still under discussion. Presumably, Isla can refine fuel for Curaçao and Bonaire.
