GIPEX 2018 is an important initiative to promote Guyana’s Petroleum Sector. The initiative presents investors a great way to explore the huge potential of this historic country.
The event will lay the foundation to establish a dynamic relationship between the Ministry of Natural Resources, Guyana and the Private sector with full co-operation from other Government Departments, all working to make Guyana a favourable and pro-business destination, a pre-requisite for boosting economic activities and achieving development objectives, DPI said.
