VENEZUELA: New Nat Gas Rig Sinks In Caribbean.

All 95 workers were evacuated from the Aban Pearl platform before it sank in the early morning. Last week Energy Minister Rafael Ramirez stood atop the rig on live tv as its gas flare was lit to inaugurate the project. The nation has massive offshore gas reserves, but it has struggled  with foreign investment.
