Guyana oil production
A comprehensive review of 2022’s defining events for Caribbean property and investment: the Russia-Ukraine inflation shock, Hurricane Fiona, tourism’s dramatic recovery and Guyana’s oil boom, with a 2023 outlook.
A comprehensive review of the Caribbean property and investment landscape in 2021 — tourism recovery, Barbados republic, Guyana oil revenues — and an outlook for 2022 as Omicron clouds the horizon.
October 2021 marked a turning point for Caribbean tourism reopening, with Jamaica, Barbados and the DR leading a broad property market revival driven by diaspora and digital nomad demand.
A definitive year-end review of 2020: Caribbean tourism collapses 65-70% but property markets demonstrate extraordinary resilience, Guyana’s oil revolution continues, diaspora remittances hit records, and vaccines offer hope for 2021.
Caribbean tourism remains near-zero as emergency economic financing is deployed across the region. The Dominican Republic is planning its July 1 border reopening as other destinations remain closed. Guyana’s oil production continues to provide a rare bright spot in an otherwise bleak regional picture.
Guyana achieves its historic first oil on December 20, 2019 — a watershed moment for the Caribbean. We review a record-breaking 2019 tourism year and look to an optimistic 2020 with exceptional confidence across regional property markets.
The Caribbean holiday season opens with exceptional momentum — Guyana’s historic first oil is imminent with ExxonMobil’s Liza Phase 1 expected to flow any day now, a record 2019 tourism year is closing strongly, and resort property markets are performing at peak levels.
Two months after Hurricane Dorian’s catastrophic assault on the Bahamas, reconstruction planning is taking shape while property insurance, resilience standards, and Caribbean hurricane risk come under intense professional scrutiny. Other island markets continue to perform strongly.
Caribbean summer 2019 tourism delivered strong results across the region — then, in the final days of our coverage period, Hurricane Dorian struck the Bahamas as a catastrophic Category 5 storm with 185 mph sustained winds. We report on the summer’s performance and this breaking disaster.
Caribbean tourism reaches its summer peak while the Dominican Republic demonstrates resilient recovery, and ExxonMobil advances Guyana’s Liza Phase 1 toward the historic first oil milestone.
