Marcel Chin-A-Lien’s article examines the Upper Cretaceous marine source rocks of the Canje Formation in the Guyana–Suriname Basin, asserting its classification as a key petroleum source system. The Canje Formation is linked genetically to prominent formations across northern South America, with exploration success reliant on factors like thermal maturity and migration rather than source rock…

Petroleum System Efficiency: Myths and Realities in Exploration
Marcel Chin-A-Lien’s article explores the paradox of low trapping efficiencies in global deepwater petroleum systems, illustrating that such efficiencies do not signify geological weakness. By analysing various basins, including the Guyana–Suriname region, the article suggests substantial undiscovered resources, highlighting that large, effective systems can thrive with low accumulation rates.

Estimating Yet-to-Find Oil and Gas in Suriname, Blocks 58 and 52
The Surinamese continuation of the Golden Lane petroleum system, covering Blocks 58 and 52, indicates significant yet-to-find oil and gas volumes, estimated at 0.3-1.3 billion barrels of oil and 1-5 trillion cubic feet of gas. The area, part of a world-class hydrocarbon system shared with Guyana, remains underexplored.

The Guyana–Suriname Basin has rapidly become a significant petroleum province, with over 500 million barrels of crude oil produced since late 2019. Daily output is expected to reach 900,000 barrels by 2025, yet data on its molecular fingerprint remains largely inaccessible in the public domain. This lack of detailed geochemical datasets hinders a comprehensive understanding…

Guyana-Suriname Basin: A Transformative FPSO Production System
Marcel Chin-A-Lien discusses the rapid development of the Guyana–Suriname Basin (GSB) in the oil sector, emphasising the establishment of a repeatable FPSO production system. With seven FPSOs planned, including significant capacities for gas and water treatment, the GSB’s strategic importance lies in its manufacturing mindset, fostering efficiency and attracting investment.

The Golden Lane, Guyana: From Deep-Water Turbidite Petroleum Systems to FPSO-Driven National Revenue
Since the first oil in December 2019, the Stabroek Block in offshore Guyana has revolutionised petroleum development through its Golden Lane system, characterised by modular FPSO installations. This article synthesises geological and reservoir insights, linking them to capital efficiency and national revenues, highlighting the role of geology in large-scale production success.
