Three local companies: Guyana Oil and Gas Support Services Inc. (GOGSSI), Industrial Fabrications Inc. (InFab), and Zeco Group of Services are at the forefront of steel fabrication for the sixth Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel, the `Jaguar’, which should be extracting oil by the end of 2027.

Together, the three companies will provide 316 metric tons of steelwork, surpassing work on previous FPSOs. This work includes essential structures such as handrails, W-beams, lighting fixtures, and module connection plates, all produced to meet rigorous international standards.

During a ceremony held yesterday at the Guyana Shore Base Incorporated (GYSBI) Houston office, SBM Offshore Guyana General Manager Martin Cheong emphasized the importance of this project as a symbol of both local industrial progress and the skills of Guyana’s workforce stating that “this gathering is yet another indication of our commitment to building local content. Our fabricators demonstrate an impressive ability to meet international standards of fabrication, and we are proud to witness their growth.”
