Club Deportivo Oriente Petrolero (Spanish pronunciation: [kluβ ðepoɾˈtiβo oˈɾjente petɾoˈleɾo]) is a Bolivian football club based in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia. They play at the 38,000-capacity Estadio Tahuichi Aguilera Stadium. Oriente is a five-time national champion and a two-time Copa Aerosur winner. In South American football, it is the second Bolivian team to reach the quarter-finals in Copa Libertadores.
The club had its first major success in 1971, winning the Bolivian league championship. Oriente Petrolero won several cup competitions during the 1980s, but it did not win any other major title until 1989. The early 2000s has been the most successful period in Oriente's history, capped by winning league titles in 2001 and 2010.
They have a longstanding rivalry called the Clásico Cruceño with fellow local team Blooming, which is also from Santa Cruz.
