Oil majors lining up for the next great South American oil boom: Stabroek News

By Matthew Smith for Oilprice.com

https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/Oil-Majors-Are-Lining-Up-For-The-Next-Great-South-American-Oil-Boom.html

The Guyana-Suriname Basin has emerged as the world’s hottest offshore oil play and with the changes occurring to the global energy mix after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Caribbean is becoming an important player in world oil markets. In the space of a mere seven (7) years, Guyana has emerged as a leading global drilling destination after ExxonMobil made 32 discoveries in the offshore Stabroek Block. While the U.S Geological Survey predicted in a May 2001 fact sheet that the Guyana-Suriname Basin held somewhere between 2.8 billion and 32.6 billion barrels of undiscovered oil resources, there are signs the volume is far greater.

  

 

Guyana-Suriname basin steals spotlight from Brazil – Rystad Energy:OilNOW

The Guyana-Suriname basin has overtaken Brazil’s pre-salt play as South America’s leading exploration hotspot, says Rystad Energy, an independent energy research and business intelligence company based in Norway. This latest feat, it said, can be credited mostly to ExxonMobil’s basin-opening Liza discovery in 2015. Since then, Rystad said the basin has delivered more than 13 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe), about 10 times the volumes found in Brazil during the same period. Nearly 11 billion of those barrels have been found in the Stabroek Block alone.

Guyana production by 2027 would exceed US$147 million per day at current oil price: OilNOW

By 2027, ExxonMobil is set to ramp up production at Guyana’s Stabroek Block to around 1.2 million barrels of oil per day (bpd). This will make the South American country the highest per capita oil producer in the world. As of June 10, Brent oil was trading at just over US$123 per barrel. At that price, at 1.2 million bpd, the Stabroek Block output would amount to approximately US$147.6 million. And this is just the beginning.
