Exxon-led consortium's Errea Wittu FPSO nears completion for Guyana's Uaru offshore project

The Exxon Mobil-led consortium's fifth floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) platform, Errea Wittu, is nearing completion and is expected to soon depart from Singapore. Built by Japanese firm MODEC, the FPSO is designed to produce, store, and deliver up to 250,000 barrels per day from the Uaru offshore project in Guyana. This development is part of Exxon's strategy to accelerate oil and gas projects in Guyana, aiming to boost the country's crude output past 900,000 bpd and reach 1.7 million bpd by 2030. The vessel will undergo testing upon arrival in Guyanese waters before starting production, contributing significantly to Guyana's position as a top oil producer in South America.
