About this event
The U.S. Commercial Service, in partnership with the U.S. Embassy in Paramaribo, is extending an invitation to U.S. companies to join a U.S. delegation to Suriname this June during the 5th Suriname Energy, Oil, and Gas Summit.
Why Suriname? Opportunities Abound: In the next five years, Suriname is poised to become one of the world’s fastest-growing economies. The significant offshore oil discovery made in 2020 has attracted prominent global oil companies such as TotalEnergies, Petronas, Chevron, and Shell. TotalEnergies alone is set to invest $1.5 billion in Suriname over the next three years, laying the groundwork for the country’s first oil production, projected for 2028. This presents an array of opportunities for U.S. companies across sectors including hospitality (restaurants, hotels), oil and gas, oil and gas services, mining, renewable energy, fintech, construction, infrastructure, aviation, franchise, consumer goods, agribusiness, and more. As Suriname’s largest trading partner, the U.S. accounts for 31% of its imports, amounting to approximately $716 million. Both the Surinamese government and private sector have demonstrated a strong commitment to deepening and expanding commercial ties with U.S. businesses.
