Petroleum Systems Analysis of the Guyana–Suriname Basin with the GLIAG methodology
The GLIAG method tests geological reconstruction against rock and fluid evidence across one basin and two national registers. Applied to its own record, it corrects the SE Golden Lane cascade, reconciles three generation totals against USGS 2025, and shows why GIP’s integrated cross-border evidence base matters. Version of record: Zenodo, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23815989.

Suriname is set to commence production of 220,000 barrels of oil daily from GranMorgu in Block 58 by 2028, significantly boosting government revenue. However, concerns remain about financial management and anti-corruption measures, as the Savings and Stabilization Fund needs to become fully operational. The success of this venture hinges on effective governance and economic strategies.

The final investment decision is expected in late 2026, with significant economic benefits predicted, including cost reductions in electricity. Negotiations for gas pricing and local ownership are crucial for success.

Suriname’s Golden Lane™ crude has yielded one billion barrels without any local refining, leading to significant value lost abroad. As the nation anticipates offshore oil by 2028, establishing a new refinery could retain economic benefits. GLIAG’s analysis indicates a bankable plan for Suriname, differing from other idle Caribbean refineries.
