The Oil and Gas Governance Network (OGGN) (www.oggn.org) on Saturday launched its summer campaign in New York City, USA to inform Guyanese and others of issues concerning oil production in Guyana. The banner raised stated, “The law demands Exxon’s full parent company guarantee. NO costs to Guyana and the Caribbean.”
A release from the group said that this banner is demanding that ExxonMobil honour what was agreed to in the Stabroek Block EPA permits. It noted that the Macondo oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in April 2010 is estimated to have cost US$145 billion.
