The recent discovery of hydrocarbons in Block 52’s Fusaea-1 exploration well confirms the Golden Lane concept in Suriname’s offshore region. The presented image of two hydrocarbon samples indicates a light oil presence, supporting hypotheses of Upper Cretaceous reservoirs fed by mature source rocks. This marks a significant milestone in Suriname’s oil development.
