I hope for the sake of the Guyanese people that it does produce wealth.

Wealth for whom? The few govt officials in office? This will not trickle down to the ordinary man as there is no plans afoot to add value to the crude oil. It will be shipped directly to existing oil refineries overseas and only royalties to the govt will be the total sum of the benefits.
