The logo at <lloydgr.brinkster.net/lloydav>
confirms basic flag design: (mainly red) national flag on the
canton and black background. This is a black flag with red
canton, apparently of Lloyd Aviation, a small airplane company
seated in Puerto Ordaz, Bolivar State, Venezuela.
This flag design appears integrated in the company logo, being
technically a flagoid: It could be the actual conmpany flag, or a
simplification of of it. Or it could be some sort of aviation
signal flag used in the logo.

One of its branches is PDVSA Argentina (colloquially known as PDVSUR), and the
flag is the same PDVSA flag, horizontal white background with the logo (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Petroleos_de_Venezuela_S.A..svg ) in
the middle, but adding the word ARGENTINA below it, all in red colors and
capital letters.
The logo, created by Designer by Jesus Emilo Franco, is based on a rock
engraving of a decorated sun, representing the Guarataro Stone, which was found
during explorations carried out close to the town of Caicara del Orinoco. The
sun is associated as a source of energy, which is the company's main goal. The
logo was initially blue with black letters, but later was changed into red
