Crude oil is relatively fungible across world markets. Whatever oil he sells elsewhere simply displaces other oil that becomes available to us.
The only thing he hurts is market efficiency, but as a Socialist he has no idea what that is. I guarantee that as he destroys market efficiency in Venezuela no amount of oil revenue will make up for the poverty and ruin in his wake.
