Oil & Gas Jobs in Guyana
Offshore roles on the FPSOs and drilling units behind Guyana's oil boom, and onshore work in construction, mining and heavy equipment. For Guyanese professionals and international specialists alike.
Guyana is hiring
Since first oil in 2019, Guyana has become one of the world's most dynamic offshore provinces. Several FPSOs are producing in the ExxonMobil-operated Stabroek Block, with more developments on the way. Each one needs offshore crews, and people onshore to build, maintain and supply it.
Guyana's Local Content Act asks operators and contractors to hire Guyanese first. Job Power Group works across Guyana and neighbouring Suriname, connecting local professionals and international specialists with the companies building the region's energy industry.

Jobs in Guyana: common questions
What oil & gas jobs are available in Guyana?
Job Power Group recruits in Guyana for offshore roles on the production and drilling operations in the Stabroek Block (production and instrument technicians, crane operators, ROV technicians, floorhands) and for onshore construction, mining and heavy-equipment work such as welders, pipe fitters, riggers, scaffolders and equipment operators. All current openings are listed live on this page.
Can Guyanese candidates apply?
Yes, and we want to hear from you. Guyana's Local Content Act requires operators and contractors to give first consideration to Guyanese nationals, so local professionals with the right experience and certificates are in high demand. International candidates are welcome too, especially for specialist and senior offshore roles.
What certifications do I need to work offshore in Guyana?
Offshore positions generally require valid BOSIET or TBOSIET and HUET, and marine roles also STCW. Onshore and construction roles ask for trade qualifications instead: welding, NDT, rigging or crane certificates. The exact requirements are listed on each job.
Why is Guyana hiring so many oil & gas workers?
Guyana is one of the fastest-growing oil producers in the world. Several FPSOs are producing in the ExxonMobil-operated Stabroek Block and more developments are coming on stream, which drives steady demand for offshore crews and for the construction, logistics and maintenance work that supports them onshore.
