Offshore discoveries turn tiny Guyana into oil hotspot
Oct 23 (Reuters) – Chevron (CVX.N) has agreed to buy smaller rival Hess (HES.N) in a $53 billion all-stock deal that will help the oil major secure a foothold in oil-rich Guyana.
The deal makes Chevron a partner with Exxon (XOM.N) in Guyana’s booming oilfields, which are expected to generate 1.2 million barrels of oil per day by 2027.
Hess is part of a consortium, including Exxon Mobil Corp and CNOOC (0883.HK), that operates in Guyana and has made more than 30 discoveries in the country’s offshore waters since 2015. Exxon had a 45% stake in the consortium with Hess owning 30% and CNOOC having a 25% stake.

Washington Prepares New Color Revolutions
The Washington-based International Center for Nonviolent Conflict recently released another playbook on color revolutions, called Fostering a Fourth Democratic Wave: A Playbook for Countering the Authoritarian Threat. This center continues the tradition of intervening in the internal affairs of foreign countries in the manner of Gene Sharp, Bruce Ackerman, and other theorists of protest political actions and movements. It should be noted that the executive director of this Center is now Ivan Marovic, one of the leaders of Yugoslav Otpor, who played a key role in the overthrow of Slobodan Milosevic.
