ExxonMobil Guyana and its contractors have spent over GY$600 billion with Guyanese businesses since operations began in 2015. In the first half of 2025 alone, GY$87 billion was spent directly with 1,800 local vendors, reinforcing the company’s dedication to local content development through significant investments in local businesses, workforce training, and community-development initiatives.
This year also marked a significant milestone with the start of in-country fabrication services at the Vreed-en-Hoop Shore Base Inc. (VEHSI), including the fabrication of quad joints and Pipeline End Terminations (PLETs), a major step in supporting the development of local industrial capabilities.
