The month's largest event in Venezuela was a magnitude 4.5 earthquake near Güiria, Venezuela on 17 February 2025 at 05:27 UTC. A magnitude 4.5 earthquake radiates roughly 85 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is below the Venezuela monthly average of 3 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month.

0% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 100% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). A substantial share of intermediate-depth events points to a subducting slab beneath the region rather than purely crustal faulting.

By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 4 range.

That is 62% below the 3 events Venezuela averages per month across the 15 months on record.
