Oil production will soon exceed 1 barrel per day for every Guyanese in-country

Guyana’s move towards becoming one of the top oil producers in the western hemisphere is likely to be realized even before the decade comes to an end as plans to develop its multi-billion-barrel oil fields move full steam ahead. The country’s 2020 population was estimated at 786,552 people according to UN data. By 2026, it could be producing more oil per day than the total of its entire population.
