Guyana, better known as the <strong>Hammerhead project.<\/strong>\nThis project is scheduled to start operations in 2029. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The seventh oil project in Guyana<\/h2>\n\n<p>This new development is expected to<strong> increase the<\/strong> South American country&#8217;<strong> s oil production capacity<\/strong> to more than 1.4 million barrels per day (bpd), strengthening and consolidating Guyana as a major player in the global energy industry with its<em>&#8220;Guyana Oil<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n\n<p>The <strong>Hammerhead development plan<\/strong> includes drilling up to 30 wells in the Stabroek block, where Exxon, along with its partners Hess Corporation and CNOOC, already produces more than 600,000 bpd.\nThis new project will use a floating production, storage and offloading<em>(FPSO<\/em>) vessel to handle daily production of between 120,000 and 180,000 bpd. <\/p>\n\n<p>Before Hammerhead becomes operational, the project must undergo rigorous environmental assessments and obtain final approval from the Guyanese government.\nThe Guyana Environmental Protection Agency has requested an <strong>Environmental Impact Assessment<\/strong><em>(EIA<\/em>) for this seventh project, which will be carried out by Exxon as operator of the Stabroek Block. <\/p>\n\n<p>This announcement comes just three months after Exxon made the final <strong>investment<\/strong> decision <strong>for its <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate.exxonmobil.com\/news\/news-releases\/2024\/0412_guyana-offshore-development-whiptail\"
