Guyana Wins Seat on Global Oil-Transparency Board as Output Scales

1 min read

Guyana has secured a seat on the board of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, giving Georgetown a direct voice in the global standard-setting body just as its oil production keeps climbing. For a diaspora watching how petroleum revenue is tracked and spent, a place at that table matters more than another production milestone: it signals where the accountability conversation is heading. The move lands alongside a parallel government push to fully digitise the Lands and Surveys Commission and a stated target of cutting national electricity demand 20 percent by 2030.
