Approximately G$257 billion (US$1.235 billion) was deposited into Guyana’s oil wealth fund between April and June, 2026, according to a government notice published in the Official Gazette.
The revenues, deposited into the Natural Resource Fund (NRF), were derived from transactions — eleven profit oil lifts executed across Guyana's four producing FPSOs during March, April and May, and one royalty payment tied to first-quarter 2026 production.

All revenues are deposited into the Natural Resource Fund and reported on a cash basis, with figures subject to adjustment following price reconciliation.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Guyana earned about G$159 billion (or US$761 million) in oil revenues in the first three months of 2026. Additionally, the Ministry of Finance noted that the balance in the NRF stood at US$4.1 billion at the end of April 2026.
Production has been steadily ramping up in the Stabroek Block offshore Guyana with multiple FPSOs now online, positioning the country among the world’s fastest-growing oil producers. More than 900,000 barrels of oil are produced daily through the Liza Destiny, Liza Unity, Prosperity, and One Guyana Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels.
Profit oil represents the government’s share of crude after cost recovery and royalties are paid quarterly based on total production. As per Guyana’s 2016 oil contract, up to 75% of the costs can be recovered or recouped as the oil produced is sold. The remaining 25% of revenues is split equally between the co-venturers (ExxonMobil, Chevron and CNOOC) and Guyana; the government also gets an additional two per cent in royalties from total revenues.
