Introduction
In today’s column, the focus of this intended re-visit of my previous evaluations of the Guyana Government Take and Reported Hydrocarbon Reserves shifts its attention to my reporting of published measures of the Take ratio for Guyana. That is, in a nutshell, to report on publicly available modeled projections of the likely Government of Guyana, GoG, take ratio, or percentage share of net petroleum revenues going to Government, based on the ruling Stabroek Production Sharing Agreement, PSA.
As will be observed, I report on projections that are all based on modelling exercises. I shall note for readers’ benefit that two of these exercises I have previously evaluated in considerable detail during this ongoing series of Sunday columns devoted to Guyana’s emerging oil and gas sector.
