Background. The Stabroek Block is a 6.6 million acre offshore oil reservoir off Guyana''s Atlantic coast. In May 2015, ExxonMobil announced that it had made its first significant oil discovery within the block at the Liza 1 well. In July 2018, ExxonMobil raised its estimate of discovered recoverable resources in the Stabroek Block to 4 billion barrels of oil.
The Government of Guyana commissioned its second mega-scale solar farm, the 1.5MW utility-scale solar PV plant at Bartica, Region Seven (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) in March 2023. At 22 off-grid locations, GEA installed over
