Over a month ago, the airport announced that they are building a new terminal and runway. Construction starts in a couple of years. Funding is lined up. Our Engines campus is in the way of this expansion. The way things are going lately, does our leadership even know about this? Are we moving production somewhere close? Or are we going to find a new home in another state?

Guyana is starting to exit the peak flush phase and enter a more run and maintain with daily production declines…the quicker the declines and the more aggressive the choke openings and ramp ups the higher chances the 5th FPSO doesn’t pass the 1,000,000 bopd hurdle…
Good Times…

Freightliner is significantly reducing its manufacturing output and laying off nearly 4,000 employees across North America. This decision stems from an anticipated 25% decrease in heavy-duty truck sales for the year. The company will eliminate third-shift operations at several truck and parts plants.

Guyana’s extraordinary Flush Production is starting to decay quickly. Field wide the 2 latest development FPSOs have reached plateau and are witnessing daily oil production declines. Liza the first FPSO development is now firmly below 90,000 bopd with a yearly decline of 6.6%. The actual decline is further hampered by recent well issues with completion integrity and SCSSV reliability.

Field and reservoir staff are concerned that Guyana’s 5th FPSO Erria Wittu production will only buffer the legacy production declines and any production over the milestone 1,000,000 bopd will be short lived.

Been hearing rumors of prod ops taking over and running the plants. Who has heard this?

Does anyone know if the rumor of a potential 737 production stop due to a window shortage is true? Supposedly this is due to a supplier factory burning down earlier this year.

the 1972 Pinto with zero upgrades from the 1972 model year. Keep the same components used in 1972, carburetor, distributor cap, am/fm radio, manual windows, no air conditioning, no intermittent windshield wipers, no cruise control, no power steering and manual transmission only. Only offer the Pinto in one color too, like yellow. Then Ford should mass produce them and watch them fly out the door.

Anyone notice thelayoff.com states Ford is a producer of tractors? Wasn't the tractor division sold to new holland?

Hey AML personnel, why are we letting them step all over us? Threatening to fire us if we don’t meet production. Implementing AI that doesn’t work. At the end of the day (well probably year) we will be laid off for the AI we are ultimately training. Let’s stop doing so much. We can only do what we can do!!! Layoffs are inevitable, and you know that.

I complained to my production VP that I never get a response from SH on any email or voice message I've sent him, even though I get 1,2 and even t3 messages somedays from him asking for all sorts of information that still isn't in salesforce. he never responds to any commission adjustments either, that require his level approvals. My VP laughed and said SH doesn't respond to any VP emails either.

Looking like the sacred cow Guyana is starting to Plateau hard.

904,000bopd in May. Still impressive and above design capacity production but, some challenges are imminent.

Lisa will shortly be sub 100,000 bopd and expecting average Aug production to be south of 866,000 bopd.
At this point forecasting a -200 bopd drop every single day…
This will raise alarms in the God Pod where additional water injection will be coupled to the system. The 4 FPSOs reached Peak in May…now it’s a daily drop until the next FPSO added.

In IT&V, the pressure to produce is increasing. Good thing most of us came from public accounting. Time to start eating time like a pro!

How do we go about having our own unions investigated for not doing their jobs? Clearly, the production hike is correlating with injuries and incidences. It appears they want transportation to do inspections and just Carmen to the shop and justification of a percentage production number.

It’s clear that Macondo level magic is rearing its head in 2026 the FAFO year…

on repairing all Fords vehicle recalls. That will keep Ford busy with endless business for years. That's where the real money is. Ford can also jack up the cost of repair parts by 125% to quickly increase profits. Say a much sought after Ford repair part currently costs 25 bucks. Well Ford could easily jack that repair part up to $56.25 and since its in deamnd people are going to pay it.

We won't know if the guppy will lay eggs and populate the tank until 2027.

There is a chance the guppy will bring in its bigger brother, the whale.

Even if it works out, let's see if the higher US production costs scare away the whale.

Don't sc--w it up!

Most of operations from Carlsbad will be laid off between January and April of 2026. Carlsbad will be transitioning to an R&D hub only. Production will be done overseas “close to the customer”.

Don’t know if it’s an official “layoff” but people are disappearing left and right. Reorg in process, and some groups seem overdue. Production line ending now. Reply if you’ve heard of actual layoffs.
