 Venezuela suspended oil exports to Exxon Mobil Corp, escalating the
country's fight with the U.S. oil giant over compensation for a heavy crude
project nationalized by socialist President Hugo Chavez.
 Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA said it had suspended commercial
relations and halted the supply of crude and petroleum products to Exxon Mobil,
the largest U.S. company.
 "Faced with the legal-economic harassment started by Exxon Mobil against
PDVSA and as an act of reciprocity, PDVSA has decided to suspend commercial
relations," the Venezuelan company said in a statement.
