El Tigre, Commercial center in Anzoátegui, Venezuela
El Tigre stands at 265 meters elevation on the Guanipa Mesa, intersected by the Tigre River with annual temperatures reaching 96 degrees Fahrenheit.
The discovery of light crude oil by Mene Grande Oil Company in 1933 led to the establishment of El Tigre as a central point for petroleum operations.
Radio broadcasting commenced in 1948 with La Voz de El Tigre station, marking the beginning of local media development in the municipality.
The city connects to Puerto La Cruz and Barcelona through a network of roads, with oil pipelines extending 160 kilometers to northern refineries.
Agricultural production in El Tigre includes peanuts, tomatoes, cashews, corn, potatoes, and sorghum, supported by the regional climate conditions.
