Universal Petroleum

A Texas-based American oil company, Universal Petroleum made a deal with the Venezuelan Government 50 years ago. In the decades since, U.P. made billions of dollars from the arrangement.

When, in recent years, the P.L.A.V. began sabotaging Universal Petroleum's equipment and pipelines, U.P. hired private mercenaries to protect their assets.
