Fossil Energy – Survey Operations
ExxonMobil Guyana will continue autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) survey operations at the Haimara Field in the Stabroek Block offshore.
The activity began on January 1, 2026, and is scheduled to conclude on February 28, 2026. The survey is taking place within Guyana’s Exclusive Economic Zone.
According to MARAD, the operation will involve the use of the OSV Amara 7807 vessel. The survey area is located about 102.47 nautical miles, or 189.78 kilometers, from Guyana’s coast. It covers approximately 305.75 square nautical miles, which is equivalent to 1,048.70 square kilometers.
Haimara was Exxon’s 12th discovery offshore Guyana.
The Government of Guyana has been urging Exxon to advance development of the Haimara and nearby Pluma gas fields close to the Suriname border.
The company is assessing a major gas project that could route supply to Berbice, which President Irfaan Ali has said must become a new growth pole as Guyana’s economy expands.
