The thinking

The thinking behind
OilNOW.

The brief

OilNOW needed a publishing engine built for how fast Guyana’s oil and gas story actually moves: multiple stories a day, breaking updates, market data, and a fast-growing archive, without losing the editorial weight the sector’s readers expect.

The direction

Treat the newsroom as infrastructure, not just a blog. The build gives OilNOW dedicated verticals for exploration, production, and local content, a running ledger of the country’s oil milestones, and its own edition for Suriname, so casual readers and industry insiders both get what they came for.

The approach

We designed and built a custom CMS from the ground up: fast enough to carry a high-traffic, ad-supported newsroom, structured enough for sponsor placements and a WhatsApp channel for breaking alerts, and flexible enough for editors to publish quickly without breaking the layout.

Where it landed

A distinct, high-authority editorial platform that OilNOW has run and grown on since launch, publishing daily across a dedicated Guyana and Suriname edition and reaching readers directly through its own WhatsApp channel.
