Exclusive: Conoco moves to take over Venezuelan PDVSA's Caribbean assets - sourcesBy Marianna Parraga and Deisy Buitrago HOUSTON/CARACAS (Reuters) - U.S. oil firm ConocoPhillips has moved to take Caribbean assets of Venezuela's state-run PDVSA to enforce a $2 billion arbitration award over a decade-oil nationalization of its projects in the South American country, according to three sources familiar with its actions. The U.S. firm targeted facilities on the islands of Curacao, Bonaire and St. Eustatius that accounted for about a quarter of Venezuela's oil exports last year. The company received court attachments freezing assets at least two of the facilities, and could move to sell them, one of the sources said.
