The Next Billion Barrels May Lie Just Beside the Golden Lane, Suriname Open For Offers

Suriname is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most attractive frontier basins, offering many reasons for international players to consider investing in Suriname. Recent offshore successes underscore the country’s potential, supported by good geology, attractive fiscal terms, a professional NOC and low above-ground risks.

The good geology is characterized by high quality reservoirs, multiple proven source rocks, extension of the golden lane, onshore billion-barrel fields, and high quality, low‑cost, low‑carbon resources. This potential is underpinned by a stable fiscal regime and environment enticing to business. As Suriname’s national oil company, Staatsolie offers deep regional expertise, transparent processes, continuous data acquisition, data accessibility and continuous support. Low above-ground risks are reflected in political stability, safety, minimal entry barriers, fast contract and permit processes, and accessible local services.

Staatsolie’s Open-Door Offering presents a unique opportunity for interested companies to be part of this momentum. The acreage on offer covers both shallow and deepwater areas. Interested companies have the flexibility to select their preferred area, propose work programs, and choose between a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) or a Joint Study Agreement (JSA).

To support informed evaluation, Staatsolie offers access to its GeoAtlas and its GeoPortal.

Explore the opportunity and learn more about available acreage, access technical data and participate in Staatsolie’s OpenDoor Offering.
