On August 13, 2026, ExxonMobil Guyana announced the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to identify four new exploration opportunities in the Stabroek Block. The company employed advanced technologies, including deep learning, machine learning, and high-performance computing, to analyze historical data and subsurface information.
However, the commercial value of these opportunities remains to be determined. On August 24, 2026, ExxonMobil Guyana also unveiled the Guyana STEM Teacher Training program, known as Enhancing Learning, Leadership and Academic Rigour (STELLAR). This two-year initiative, part of the US$100 million, 10-year Guyana STEM Initiative, aims to train 60 pre-service secondary school educators in mathematics and science.
The program, initiated by the Cyril Potter College of Education, seeks to bolster STEM education nationwide and improve student outcomes in these subjects.
