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.

Impact of Suriname’s New Modular Refinery
The Golden Lane Investments Advisory Group’s essay presents a compelling argument for the New Modular Refinery in Suriname, asserting it will shift the country’s current account akin to a midsize eurobond annually, without incurring debt. This structural improvement enhances Suriname’s economic stability and sovereign rating, providing macroeconomic benefits.
