The arrival of the FPSO Jaguar in Singapore’s dry dock is excellent news for the offshore sector. This floating production, storage and offloading vessel is set to play an essential role in the Guyana’s oil development.
This project, undertaken by SBM Offshore for ExxonMobil Guyana Limited, is part of the Whiptail development on the prolific Stabroek Block. The Seatrium shipyard in Singapore is hosting the current phase of work, with topside construction progressing on schedule.
Technical details and next steps
The FPSO is designed to produce approximately 250,000 barrels per day and store up to 2 million barrels of crude oil, operating at depths approaching 1,630 meters. The next stage will include the installation of the mooring structures and the riser balcony, key components for its deepwater performance.
With the Jaguar FPSOGuyana consolidates its position as an emerging energy player in South America. This development strengthens the deepwater infrastructure in the Stabroek Block, located some 200 kilometers off the Guyanese coast.

In addition, the project is supported by the program Fast4Ward program, which seeks to standardize efficient and sustainable solutions for offshore production. offshore production.
Strategic impact on the energy market
The collaboration between ExxonMobil and SBM Offshore continues to drive oil infrastructure development in Guyana. The drydocking of the Jaguar FPSO represents significant progress on this sixth ExxonMobil project in the country.
With each step, Guyana reinforces its role in the global oil market and strengthens its growth trajectory in offshore exploration and production.
