Guyana received US$2.1 billion in profit oil revenues in 2025, supported by a total of 32 Government crude lifts from the country’s four producing Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels, Senior Minister in the Office of the President with Responsibility for Finance, Dr Ashni Singh, told the National Assembly on Monday.
Presenting the 2026 National Budget, Dr Singh disclosed that there were 260 lifts of crude oil overall from the Liza Destiny, Liza Unity, Prosperity and One Guyana FPSOs during 2025, inclusive of a combined inaugural lift from the One Guyana vessel.
Of that total, the Government of Guyana executed 32 lifts, comprising six from Liza Destiny, 11 from Liza Unity, 12 from Prosperity and three from One Guyana.
He explained that the profit oil payments received in 2025 reflected two Government lifts that occurred in the final quarter of 2024, 29 lifts that took place in 2025, along with Government’s share from the inaugural One Guyana lift.
According to Dr Singh, the US$2.1 billion in profit oil comprised US$400.1 million from Liza Destiny, US$767.7 million from Liza Unity, US$824.4 million from Prosperity and US$133.6 million from One Guyana.
In addition, royalty payments for the year amounted to US$330.7 million from the Stabroek Block operator.
Petroleum revenues for 2025 were further bolstered by a US$15 million signing bonus from a new Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) signed on November 11, 2025, with a consortium for the shallow-water Block S4 offshore Guyana.
Dr Singh also outlined the status of the Natural Resource Fund (NRF), noting that in accordance with the NRF Act 2021 and approvals granted by the National Assembly, a total of US$2.463 billion was withdrawn in 2025 to finance national development priorities.
By the end of the year, he said the NRF balance, inclusive of interest income and net of withdrawals, stood at US$3.250 billion.
The Finance Minister highlighted that petroleum revenues continue to play a central role in financing infrastructure, social services and long-term development, while maintaining fiscal sustainability through the rules-based framework of the NRF.
