CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — U.S. oil giant ConocoPhillips says it has reached an agreement with Venezuela*s state-owned oil company to recover nearly $2 billion it was awarded as part of a decade-old expropriation dispute.

Monday's statement from Houston-based Conoco says that PDVSA has agreed to recognize the judgement by an international arbitration panel and will make the first $500 million payment within 90 days and the rest over a period of some four years.

Hope it is in US currency instead of Venezuelan.

I hope it is ownership of US assets, but I know that won't happen.

Otherwise, actual oil on a ship would work too.

They'll probably receive about this much of the award:
