Newly released government figures show that ExxonMobil’s four producing projects in the Stabroek Block pumped an average of 892,000 barrels of crude per day in December 2025. Output was roughly 130,000 b/d at Liza Phase 1, 244,000 b/d at Liza Phase 2, 256,000 b/d at Payara, and 262,000 b/d at Yellowtail over the month.
Yellowtail, the most recent development to start up, entered production in August and hit its initial target production capacity of about 250,000 b/d by November, providing most of the lift in late‑year volumes.
December’s rate was just below November’s 894,000 b/d but well above the 841,000 b/d recorded in October, highlighting the higher plateau reached once Yellowtail’s output stabilised.
On an annual basis, crude production from the Stabroek Block averaged 716,000 barrels per day in 2025.
