The NGL plant and the 300 megawatts (MW) power plant form part of the imminent Gas-to-Energy project which the government is executing in collaboration with ExxonMobil affiliate, Esso Exploration and Production Guyana Limited (EEPGL).

The Request for Proposals published in July last said that the successful consultant would assist the government through the Gas-to-Energy task force in the design review, construction, supervision and general project management of the development of the integrated plants, and contract administration throughout the project implementation process and thereafter during the defects liability period.

Government estimates the project would last 42 months from the date of contract signing.

The Gas-to-Energy project is regarded as critical to the country’s future since it paves the way for reduced electricity costs, the creation of new industries, the use of cleaner energy sources, and the bolstering of the agriculture and manufacturing sectors.
