据OE网站12月13日报道，在圭亚那政府呼吁通过深海石油和天然气的发现为当地居民带来经济利益，帮助将这个南美国家变成石油大国之际，埃克森美孚公司宣布了在圭亚那的一项重大新投资。
埃克森美孚驻圭亚那公司总裁阿利斯泰尔·劳特利奇（Alistair Routledge）周四晚些时候发表讲话表示，即将建成的陆上供应基地将扩大就业岗位，并促进未来项目的当地制造本土化，从其第四个生产单元开始。他在乔治敦工商会的一次聚会上表示，这将使圭亚那的总投资达到300亿美元。
圭亚那仍在审查该生产财团未来项目“Yellowtail”所需的环境许可，官员们已呼吁埃克森美孚及其合作伙伴增加财务担保和当地内容，以赢得所需的批准。
劳特利奇在乔治敦对一个团体表示，很难高估正在发生事情的规模。私营部门投资提供了“一个转变整体经济的巨大机会”。
据劳特利奇称，埃克森美孚还在计划一个可以降低电力成本的天然气发电项目。
他表示，由埃克森美孚牵头、赫斯（Hess Corp.）组成的财团有3,200多名圭亚那当地人参与其业务，另有约800家当地供应商参与。该组织在圭亚那附近的深水区发现了100亿桶石油和天然气。
赫斯的一位发言人向埃克森美孚提出了问题，该公司发言人Meghan Macdonald称，埃克森美孚已发出了获取该海岸基地信息的请求，这是计划在圭亚那建立的第二个海岸基地，目前正在评估提交的提案。
埃克森美孚上个月表示，圭亚那的日产量可能在2026年达到75万桶，目前为12万桶。赫斯单独预测，到2027年，日产量将达到100万桶。
劳特利奇表示，埃克森“整个海上活动供应链已转移到圭亚那”，并将“业务从美国、巴西和特立尼达和多巴哥转移到圭亚那”。

Exxon Proposing to Build Supply base for Guyana Project
Exxon Mobil Corp outlined a major new investment in Guyana amid government calls for delivering economic benefits to residents from deepwater oil and gas discoveries helping turn the South American nation into an oil powerhouse.
A coming onshore supply base will expand jobs and boost local fabrication for future projects starting with its fourth production unit, Exxon's president for Guyana Alistair Routledge said in remarks late Thursday. It will bring total investment in Guyana to $30 billion, he told a Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry gathering.
Guyana is still reviewing needed environmental permits for the production consortium's future project, called Yellowtail, and officials have called on Exxon and partners to add financial guarantees and local content to win needed approval.
"It is difficult to overestimate the scale of what is taking place," Routledge said in Georgetown before a group. Private sector investment offers "an enormous opportunity to transform the overall economy."
Exxon is also planning a gas-to-energy project that is could reduce the cost of electricity, according to Routledge.
An Exxon-led consortium with Hess Corp has more than 3,200 Guyanese working on its operations and some 800 local suppliers, he said. The group discovered 10 billion barrels of oil and gas in deep waters off Guyana.
A Hess spokesperson referred questions to Exxon, whose spokesperson Meghan Macdonald said Exxon issued a request for information for the shore base, the second planned in Guyana, and is currently in the process of evaluating the submitted proposals.
Exxon last month said Guyana production could hit 750,000 barrels per day (bpd) in 2026, from 120,000 bpd today. Hess separately put total output at 1 million bpd by 2027.
Most of Exxon's "entire supply chain for our offshore activities have been relocated to Guyana", moving "activities from the United States, Brazil and Trinidad and Tobago," Routledge said.
