  • The Guyana-Suriname Basin: an Evolving Exploration Opportunity
    The Guyana-Suriname Basin: An Evolving Exploration Opportunity Warren Workman* CGX Energy Inc., Calgary, AB, Canada [email protected] and David J. Birnie GEOSEIS Inc., Calgary, AB, Canada The Guyana-Suriname Basin is a half graben Atlantic-margin basin on the northeast coast of South America (Figure 1). It was rated as the second most prospective unexplored basin in the world according to the USGS in its World Petroleum Assessment 2000. World class Canje source beds are in a mature position (Figure 2). The main reservoir targets are Upper Cretaceous and Lower Tertiary basin floor fans, shelf-margin deposits and turbidites directly overlying mature source. Recent seismic combined with 1970's well control provides an exploration framework. Depth mapping of deep closures have eliminated the distortion/ velocity pull-up by an overlying shelf margin carbonate bank of Tertiary age. Large closures have been mapped and are associated with significant shows from 1975 drilling. Basin History This basin evolved from a failed rift arm which extents on trend to the Takatu Basin to the east straddling the borders of Guyana and Brazil. It is bounded to the south by the Demerara Plateau high and to the north by the Pomeroon Arch. The basin architecture is described as a trap door structure plunging from the Pomeroon Arch and abutting against the Demerara Plateau. The basement is formed by the Atlantic Unconformity (Figure 3). The basement ranges from Precambrian to Jurassic in age. The overlying basal sequence was deposited in a gradually deepening depositional environment formed by downwarping at the earliest stages of the South America Africa rifting as it progressed from south to north.

  • Remnants of the Early Dutch in Guyana 1616-1815 Nova Zeelandia (New Zeeland
    Remnants Of The Early Dutch in Guyana 1616-1815 By Dmitri Allicock Coat of arms -Flag of the Dutch West Indian Company- 1798 Map of Essequibo and Demerara Nova Zeelandia (New Zeeland} Guyana is the only English-speaking country in South America, but English has been the official language for less than half the time Europeans occupied the country. The Dutch language was the main medium of communication for 232 years, from the time a group of Dutchmen sailed up the Pomeroon River and settled there, to 1812 when English replaced Dutch as the language used in the Court of Policy (Parliament). To this day, hundreds of villages have retained their original Dutch names like Uitvlugt, Vergenoegen and Zeeburg. Some present-day Guyanese have names like Westmaas, Van Lange and Meertens. No Guyanese citizen or visitor can escape visible and other reminders of our Dutch predecessors. The ruins of a brick fort can still be seen on a little island where the Essequibo, Mazaruni and Cuyuni rivers meet. The original fort was a wooden structure built around 1600 by some Dutch traders who called it Kyk-over-al or "See-over-all" because it provided a commanding view of the three rivers. From 1627 the fort was controlled by the Dutch West India Company, a Holland-based organization which was vested with the power to establish colonies and which monopolized Dutch trade in the New World. The Company appointed Adrianetz Groenewegel as its first Commander to administer Kyk-over-al. The wooden fort was replaced in the 1630s by a brick structure which also served as an administrative centre.

The region spans 2,392 square miles. The 46,810 people of this region live in Indigenous settlements and more established villages concentrated along the coast. The town of Anna Regina, on the West Bank of the Essequibo River, grew out of a government land development scheme and is made up of former plantations such as Henrietta, Lima and La Belle Alliance. Rice farming is the main economic activity of this region. The Tapakuma Project in this region links the Tapakuma, Reliance and Capoey lakes into one large conservancy, which supplies irrigation water for rice fields which dominate Region Two.

    Caribbean Sub-Region Situation Report - March 2019 Caribbean Sub-Regional Refugee & Migrants Response Plan - Summary Figures Dominican Republic Trinidad and Guyana Aruba Curaçao Tobago 35 177K 141K 25K 35M Appealing Refugees & Refugees & Target Host Financial Partners Migrants in Need Migrants Targeted Community Requirements In recent years, five countries in the sub-region have been hosting growing numbers of refugees and migrants from Venezuela: Aruba, Curaçao, the Dominican Republic, Guyana, and Trinidad and Tobago. It is estimated that around 146,9001 have arrived by air, land, and sea to date, including some returnees in Guyana. Through the 2019 Regional Refugee and Migrants Response Plan (RRMRP), partners have identified the priority needs for both refugees/migrants, and host communities. These are: protection, shelter, access to food, adequate nutrition and health care, including psychosocial support, as well as the provision of livelihoods, and self-reliance opportunities. The RRMRP outlines the intended interventions to address these priority needs and their related financial requirements for the sub-region, in support to the response of national governments. Through the inter-agency coordination platforms (Refugee and Migrants Working Groups) that are being established at the sub-regional and national level, United Nations (UN) agencies, Non- Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and civil society aim to meet the emergency assistance, protection, and integration needs of refugees and migrants from Venezuela, in complementarity and support to existing government’s responses.
