A Request for Information (RFI) has been issued by ExxonMobil Guyana Limited (EMGL) to identify suppliers capable of providing and operating Fast Supply Vessels (FSVs) to support its expanding offshore activities in the Stabroek Block.
The company plans to establish a non-binding agreement for the provision and operation of these vessels, which are to be delivered by April 1, 2026, for an initial one-year charter with three optional one-year extensions. EMGL said vessel providers are also encouraged to share information on vessels that could become available after that date.

The vessels must also be able to transit the Demerara River at any time, requiring a maximum draft of approximately 4.5 meters.
