Dear Editor,
In a meeting with the Opposition held on September 8, 2023, ExxonMobil Guyana Ltd, through its Country Manager, Mr. Alistair Routledge stated that Exxon will not neglect its responsibilities in the event of an oil spill and that his company has always operated with integrity, transparency, and accountability.
In the said meeting ExxonMobil said that they agreed with the government to US$3M because it was too time consuming to continue to go through all the information and reduce it further. He went on to state that they have all the information on their expenditure.
We, the undersigned, wish to state that what we highlighted is what was conveyed to us in the meeting, and it is now opportune for Exxon to honour its comment that it operates based on integrity, transparency and accountability and state publicly what it told the Opposition delegation it met.
Regards,
Aubrey Norton MP
