ExxonMobil Guyana has announced a discovery at Bluefin in the Stabroek block offshore Guyana, the company’s first discovery of 2024.

The Bluefin well encountered approximately 197 ft (60 metres) of hydrocarbon-bearing sandstone and was drilled by the Stena Drillmax drillship in 4,244 feet (1,294 metres) of water.

The Bluefin well is located approximately 8.5 km southeast of the Sailfin-1 well, in the southeastern portion Stabroek block.

“Our exploration programme continues to improve our understanding of the block’s potential to drive viable oil-and-gas development. This latest find reinforces that we have the people, skills and technology to safely and responsibly deliver value to Guyana from the country’s resources,” said President of ExxonMobil Guyana Alistair Routledge.

The Bluefin discovery joins the more than 30 already made on the Stabroek block since 2015.
