The government has invited bids from private firms to design, build and operate a new gas bottling and logistics facility at Wales on the West Bank of Demerara.
The project, to be developed under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, aims to cut the cost of domestic cooking gas. National demand is estimated at about three million 20-pound cylinders a year, worth roughly GYD 14 billion ($67 million).
The planned Guyana Gas Bottling and Logistics Company (GGBL) will purchase gas at wholesale prices from Guyana Power and Gas Inc. (GPGI) and handle bottling, transport, and nationwide distribution, the Office of the Prime Minister said in a statement.
Qualified engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firms are required to submit proposals outlining design, construction, financing, operations and experience with similar projects. Bidders must also provide cost breakdowns, local content plans, and five-year operational schedules.
Proposals are due by January 15, 2026, and should be addressed to the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board (NPTAB) in Georgetown.
Inquiries can be made to the Gas-to-Energy Task Force at the Office of the Prime Minister via gas-to-energy@gte.gov.gy or ps@opm.gov.gy.
The government said it reserves the right to reject any or all bids or move forward with specific elements of the process at its discretion.
