SBM Offshore, guided by CEO Øivind Tangen, is redefining sustainable oil and gas operations in Guyana. As Guyana emerges as a global energy powerhouse, SBM Offshore has strategically tailored its operations to support efficient oil production plus positive local impact.
“Sustainability is not just a part of our approach…it’s at the core of how we do business here and globally,” Tangen asserted.
