(CNN) — The United States has completed its first sale of Venezuelan oil, valued at $500 million, according to an administration official.

Additional sales of oil are expected in the coming days and weeks, the official added.

In the days since the United States attacked Venezuela and captured its president, Nicolás Maduro, earlier this month, President Donald Trump has made it clear that he plans to tap into the country’s vast oil reserves.

Trump said on Friday that the oil industry would invest at least $100 billion to rebuild Venezuela’s battered energy sector — though it’s not clear where that number came from.

The administration’s plans to capitalize on Venezuela’s oil were met with skepticism by US energy executives at the White House on Friday.

“It’s uninvestible,” ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods told officials when discussing the obstacles to doing business in Venezuela. “There are a number of legal and commercial frameworks that would have to be established to even understand what kind of returns we would get on the investment.”

Several other executives also expressed reluctance with doing business in the embattled Latin American country. After a lengthy White House meeting on Friday, Trump and his top aides had emerged without any major commitments from companies to invest billions of dollars in the nation.

The details about the first oil sale were unclear on Wednesday, but in a statement, White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers said that “President Trump’s team is facilitating positive, ongoing discussions with oil companies that are ready and willing to make unprecedented investments to restore Venezuela’s oil infrastructure.”

On Wednesday, Reuters reported that Venezuelan crude oil was being offered at a discount to traders compared to competing oil from other countries, such as Canada.

El tercer periodo de solicitudes del sorteo aleatorio de la Copa Mundial de la FIFA 2026 concluyó el 13 de enero con una marca histórica de demanda por parte de los aficionados alrededor del mundo.

Según comunicó la FIFA, más de 500 millones de peticiones de boletos, una cifra que marca un récord en la historia del deporte mundial, ha sido la demanda que recibió el organismo por parte de aficionados de 211 países.

La FIFA destacó que los pedidos han sido especialmente altos en los tres países organizadores —Canadá, Estados Unidos y México—, así como en Alemania, Inglaterra, Brasil, España, Portugal, Argentina y Colombia.

Durante la fase de venta, se registró un promedio de 15 millones de solicitudes diarias, cada una verificada con datos de tarjeta de crédito.

Una demanda sin precedentes que pone de manifiesto el atractivo de la primera Copa Mundial de la FIFA con 48 selecciones, de acuerdo con las palabras del presidente del máximo organismo, Gianni Infantino.

“500 millones de solicitudes de entradas en poco más de un mes es más que una demanda alta, constituye una auténtica declaración de intenciones a escala mundial. En nombre de la FIFA, quiero dar las gracias y felicitar a los aficionados de todo el planeta por esta respuesta extraordinaria”, publicó la FIFA en un comunicado citando a Infantino.

El Departamento de Gestión de Venta de Entradas de la FIFA empezará el periodo de verificación de los solicitantes, como el cumplimiento de la normativa y las restricciones por unidad familiar.

Si la demanda supera la oferta, después de este primer análisis, como puede ser lo más probable, las entradas o el hacer efectivo su proceso de compra se asignarán mediante un proceso de selección aleatorio.

A partir del 5 de febrero, los solicitantes recibirán un correo electrónico informando si han sido elegidos.

La aprobación puede ser total o parcial. Es decir, un beneficiado podría recibir el pedido completo de boletos que solicitó o una cantidad menor, si es el caso, con el cobro correspondiente.

Quienes no resulten seleccionados tendrán otra oportunidad en la fase de venta de última hora, donde las entradas se venderán por orden de solicitud.

Otra opción de adquisición directa de boletos es el de comprar en hospitality o secciones preferenciales, y/o en el sitio de reventa oficial de la FIFA y distribuidores autorizados de cada país.
