Small regional airport serving Ecuador's Amazon oil region.

Location
Lago Agrio, Ecuador
Guarumo Airport (ICAO: SEUA) is a small general aviation and regional airport located near Lago Agrio, the capital of Sucumbíos Province in northeastern Ecuador. The area is situated in the Ecuadorian Amazon basin and serves as a hub for the petroleum industry that dominates the local economy. The airport primarily handles light aircraft, charter flights, and occasional scheduled regional services connecting Lago Agrio to Quito and other Ecuadorian cities. It plays a supporting role alongside the larger Nueva Loja Airport (SENL), which is the main commercial airport serving the Lago Agrio area.
