This paper introduces a three-dimensional model of the Upper Cretaceous interval offshore Suriname, revealing systematic thickness variations from shelf to deepwater basin, reaching 6–6.5 km in the northwestern depocenter. The study highlights the influence of rift inheritance, sag-phase thermal subsidence, and sediment routing on accommodation distribution and burial history.

The Geological Intelligence Report by Golden Lane Investments Advisory Group highlights the significance of Longtail gas and condensate within the Guyana–Suriname Basin. It identifies a mature, efficient wet-gas petroleum system, evidencing systematic fluid migration and a multi-phase petroleum model, while outlining critical exploration and production implications for the region.

The Coniacian–Santonian interval is crucial for hydrocarbon development in the Guyana–Suriname Basin, establishing reservoir and carrier-bed systems linked to maturation of underlying Cenomanian–Turonian source rocks. This phase, characterised by sediment routing and deepwater fairways, is essential for understanding petroleum accumulations and exploration strategies in the region.

ExxonMobil’s strategic shift from the Canje Block in Guyana to Ultra-Deepwater 1 in Trinidad reflects a focus on capital allocation rather than geological issues. While Canje shows hydrocarbons, it lacks commercial viability, prompting Exxon to prioritise seismic data acquisition at UD-1 for better risk management and investment potential.

The Guyana–Suriname Basin is a coherent thermodynamic petroleum system shaped by maturity, pressure, and fluid variation rather than isolated geological successes. This unified framework reveals systematic thermal maturity and pressure gradients, impacting discoveries and commercial thresholds, which are influenced by factors such as reservoir characteristics and infrastructure.

The article outlines the coherent maturity gradient of the Guyana–Suriname Basin, revealed through five wells. It describes a systematic evolution from light oil to gas-condensate, supported by subsurface architecture evidence. Key findings emphasise Block 52’s higher maturity and the gas-condensate transition in the eastern basin, with significant exploration and development implications.

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.

The document discusses the strategic transformation of Suriname’s gas resources, focusing on the Sloanea discovery. Key monetisation options include Full FLNG Export, Gas-to-Shore with domestic entitlements, and a hybrid model with Guyana. The analysis highlights long-term benefits of Gas-to-Shore for energy security, industrial growth, and regional integration, emphasising the need for cohesive planning and execution.
