Strategic Partner of the Inaugural Guyana International Petroleum Business Summit and Exhibition (GIPEX) – ExxonMobil Guyana – expects the event to play a key role in showcasing the South American Country of 750,000 people.

Speaking at the official launch of GIPEX 2018 on Wednesday, ExxonMobil Country Manager, Rod Henson, said the company ‘feels a special responsibility’ to support and participate in events such as GIPEX which will serve to showcase Guyana and open up opportunities for local businesses.

“We feel a special responsibility to share our experiences and to participate in these discussions. I am very proud to…walk hand-in-hand with Guyana as they join the community of oil producing nations,” he said.

The event, he pointed out, provides an opportunity for the exchange of ideas and networking which serves to help companies and showcase the country.

“They are really good topics in terms of safety, local content…and just generally how to do business in Guyana,” the Country Manager said.

ExxonMobil will be participating “in many different ways” Mr. Henson said, both as a company, as well as through entities such as the Centre for Local Business Development.
