The agreement was signed by Pedro Leon, director at Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA (Petroleos de Venezuela SA), and Valery Rusakov, director at Russia's National Oil Consortium – comprised of Rosneft, energy monopoly Gazprom, Lukoil, TNK-BP and Surgutneftegaz – at a meeting between Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and Venezuela's Energy and Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez in Moscow.

The two countries agreed to establish a joint venture to develop the oilfield, with Venezuela taking a 60% stake in the deal and Russia the remaining 40%.
