No doubt, but I'm simply making the point that it doesn't make economic sense for US to go after Venezuelan oil.

Not really, given the investment involved in developing the necessary technology in the first place.
Only way this could make sense for any third country would be if it was strategic, but Venezuela is kind of poorly located for that.
