Guyana has managed to develop its oil and gas production from virtually nothing in 2018 to producing approximately 600k barrels per day of oil in 2024. Guyana is a stable, Western democracy and a secure source of energy in an uncertain world. By 2027, Guyana is projected to produce almost 1.5 million barrels of oil per day, making it one of the world's largest producers.
Rich in other natural resources
Guyana isn't only dependent on oil, and has taken steps to ensure its economy remains diverse. Gold, diamonds, bauxite, forestry and agriculture are also major industries in Guyana, along with a quickly developing manufacturing and services sector.
