Petronex was built to grow with Guyana. Local content is not a compliance target — it is how we operate.

Guyana's Economy Is Growing Fast

With one of the world's fastest-growing oil economies, Guyana is at an inflection point. The Local Content Act 2021 creates a framework for this growth to build national capacity — not import it.

Petronex was incorporated and operates in Guyana. Every engagement draws on a Guyanese workforce, engages Guyanese supply chains, and develops the capabilities of local professionals.

Our Local Content Commitments

Local Hiring

Guyanese professionals are our first recruitment pool for all technical, operational, and support roles. Petronex invests in training and structured development for team members at all experience levels.

Local Procurement

Where goods and services can be sourced from Guyanese suppliers, Petronex actively does so. We maintain working relationships with local vendors across multiple categories and prioritise those relationships in procurement decisions.

Capacity Building

Beyond compliance, Petronex supports the long-term growth of Guyana's skilled workforce by participating in knowledge transfer programmes and building internal operational knowledge that remains in-country.

Work with a Guyanese Company

For operators and developers who need a local partner that understands the regulatory and cultural landscape.
