The National Consulting Center did a study of the image of local mayors and departmental governors and published their latest findings. Here is a look at how the political heads of oil producing regions – Meta and Casanare – fared.
Ecopetrol (NYSE: EC) spoke to investors last week and one of the upbeat stories was about exploration, something the NOC often gets criticized for.
The debate in Colombia on oil production has centered mainly on the seismic impact on water sources, tankers in the road, spills and labor practices, but for the first time the controversy around Hydraulic Fracturing, or Fracking, in the United States has landed in the headlines of a major business newspaper.
This week the USO continued to call for the release of its Dario Cardenas Pachon, the VP of the Meta chapter, calling his arrest part of an orchestrated attempted by the government and oil companies to attack the organization.
At its 25th anniversary the Chamber of Oil Goods and Services (Campetrol) is bringing more local suppliers into the oil industry with operators and contractors, creating opportunities through a number of fronts, says its executive director.
Equion invited local journalists to conference on the effects of seismic exploration in Yopal led by one of its geologists that sought to dispel rumors that the tests are affecting the local water supply. A public referendum has been scheduled in the nearby Tauramena municipality which addresses this issue and asks residents to approve or reject nearby oil production in general.
