The Guyana-Suriname Basin: A Psychological Barrier to Collaboration
This essay explores the unspoken barriers between geologists in Guyana and Suriname, highlighting how mass psychology, social identity, and territorial anxieties contribute to professional silence across borders. Despite a shared geological landscape and historical connections, these communities remain largely insulated from collaboration due to unwritten societal norms that discourage cross-border engagement.

Dual-Phase Systems in Oil Exploration: Guyana-Suriname Case Study
The GuyanaโSuriname Basin requires a comprehensive analysis that integrates oil, gas, and pore volume due to its complex geology. Recent well data reveals diverse fluid provinces influenced by four source kitchens and varying migration regimes. Understanding this interconnected system enhances resource estimation and prospect evaluation significantly, moving beyond traditional, isolated assessments.

Stranded Energy: Lessons for Suriname’s Petroleum Future
This essay highlights the concept of “stranded energy” where petroleum resources fail to generate economic value due to institutional failures rather than geological issues. Using case studies from Yemen, Mozambique, Nigeria, and Qatar, it argues that synchronisation among finance, infrastructure, and institutions is crucial for converting hydrocarbon wealth into national prosperity, particularly in Suriname’s emerging…

From Oil to Prosperity: Suriname’s Strategic Energy Execution Framework
Suriname is embarking on a significant energy transformation with the $10.5 billion GranMorgu oil project, aiming for 220,000 barrels per day by 2028. This shift towards a multi-resource energy nation necessitates careful institutional integration, fiscal discipline, and regulatory framework efforts, as well as strategic development through gas utilisation and refining to maximise domestic value capture.

Revolutionizing Petroleum Migration in the Guyana Basin
The GLIAG essay challenges traditional petroleum migration models, suggesting these systems are more dynamic than previously thought. It posits that the Tambaredjo oil field may represent a preserved stage in a complex evolution of hydrocarbons through various geological processes, urging further investigation and reevaluation of exploration strategies within the GuyanaโSuriname Basin.
