The movement, founded in 1865 by William Booth, has spread from London, England, to many parts of the world. The rapid deployment of the first Salvationists was aided by the adoption of a quasi-military command structure in 1878 when the title, âThe Salvation Armyâ, was brought into use. A similarly practical organisation today enables resources to be equally flexible.
Venezuelaâs oil production has been declining for years, going from 3.3 million barrels a day in 1997 to about 1.9 million barrels a day in 2016. Venezuela cannot afford to produce the oil it needs to sell.
But the country has the worldâs largest oil reserves, even greater than Saudi Arabia. According to the CIA Factbook, this is how the top 10 look in terms of proved reserves: The United States is 11th on the list at 36,520,000,000 BBL. All the numbers are unreliable if shale deposits are taken out. Venezuelaâs problem is that it cannot get oil out of the ground. If it could, crude sales might produce enough money to solve some of the nationâs problems.
