The Venezuelan tanker has been parked in the ocean for nearly two years, carrying around 1.3 million barrels of oil.

A Venezuelan oil tanker, anchored in the Gulf of Paria between Venezuela and Trinidad and Tobago, carries over 1.3 million barrels of oil. This is five times the amount spilled by the Exxon Valdez in 1989. Environmentalists are worried that a storm could destabilize the tanker, leading to a catastrophic oil spill that would devastate the region's ecosystem for decades.
