ExxonMobil Guyana announced plans to establish enabling agreements for the provision and operation of platform supply vessels (PSV) and fast supply vessels (FSV) in Guyana waters.

The company’s Request for Information (RFI) indicates the vessels need to be delivered by August 1, 2024. These vessels will be chartered for up to one year with associated services, and potential for extensions.

Exxon specified that vessels built in 2010 or later are strongly preferred and should have undergone a five-year certification within the last two years before on-hire. Additionally, providers must ensure adequate support for maintenance within Guyana waters and be registered to operate in the region with the necessary resources.

Exxon said the PSVs must meet specific requirements, including features such as the FuelTrax System, 360 CCTV System, and a minimum dynamic positioning (DP2) capability. They must also possess liquid mud and dry bulk capacity, with the ability to navigate the Demerara River to/from the Guyana Shore Base Inc. (GYSBI) facility at high tide.

FSVs, on the other hand, must also adhere to similar specifications, including the FuelTrax System, 360 CCTV System, and DP2 capability, Exxon said. These vessels, however, must have a lower draft to transit the Demerara River at any time.

ExxonMobil is operator of the Stabroek and Canje Blocks offshore Guyana and is engaged in exploration and development operations in the former block.
