Weekly Progress Report — April 8, 2026

The Progress Report: tracking what is actually being built, spent, investigated, and quietly not explained. Every Wednesday.

THIS WEEK’S NUMBER: US$761 MILLION

Guyana received US$761 million in oil revenue in the first quarter of 2026. That is the figure from Kaieteur News, which runs slightly higher than the G$159 billion figure in the Official Gazette due to differing accounting periods and exchange rates. Either way: large. Arriving. Quarterly. The Natural Resource Fund is the mechanism through which these funds are managed. The Fund’s reports are public. Reading them is an option available to every Guyanese citizen and is recommended as a hobby.
