[00:00:14]Now, Jamaica recently, so Jamaica has been searching for oil in the Wal Walton Marant Basin, Walton Marant Basin, and all the tests so far have come back positive for oil. So, the next step now is to drill for oil. Now, the company that holds the license, United Oil and Gas, they don't have the financial resources to drill for the oil in Jamaica. So they are looking to partner with a company to do the drilling and basically bringing up the oil and selling it.

[00:01:36]Chevron is the second largest oil company in the United States and one of the most powerful energy companies in the world. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Chevron operates in offshore oil drilling, natural gas production, refining, and energy transportation across several continents.

[00:01:56]The company has become especially important in the Caribbean and South American region because of its growing involvement in offshore oil projects near Guyana.

[00:02:08]In recent years, Jamaica has attracted international attention because of its growing interest in possible offshore oil reserves in the Walton Morant basin located south of the island.

[00:02:23]Exploration company United Oil and Gas has been conducting surveys and scient scientific testing in the Jamaican waters.

[00:02:33]The company re reported signs of an active petroleum system increasing speculation that Jamaica could possess commercially viable oil reserves.

[00:02:45]Because of these developments, several major international energy companies have reportedly been monitoring Jamaica's progress closely. Chevron is considered one of the most likely future partners because the company specializes in deep water offshore exploration.

[00:03:03]Its expertise in nearby Guyana makes it particularly suited for operations in the Caribbean region.
