  • Summary

  • Exxon Mobil struck black gold in 2015 when it discovered a massive oil reserve off the coast of Guyana in South America. It’s poised to make Guyana the fourth-largest offshore oil developer in the world, and it's already jump-started a transformation within the developing economy. But will this oil bonanza benefit Guyana’s people? The FT’s US energy editor Jamie Smyth travels to Guyana’s capital to understand Exxon’s impact first-hand.
