| Primarily an oil town, it has a port and a tank farm. La Salina is a district of Cabimas, and the main PDVSA building is there. This is where I work. |
 |
| The main SCADA machines are here, and also the offices for Automation (SCADA). Also near by is El Menito and Ule, which are also important in the scheme of things. | |
| I stayed in Cabimas for 3 months in 2000, at the but then moved to the Maruma hotel in Maracaibo - mostly because the only thing in Cabimas is a McDonalds which was lowering my CI coefficient way too much. But after living in the Maruma Hotel for 6 months, I moved into an apartment. | |

One of the things that struck me the most was just how pervasive the oil industry is in this town. Also, just how blaze people sem to be about it. I cant help but think about safety when I see nodding donkey pumps and flares to close to residential areas. |
