rockets, the equator, and a fixed offset

French Guiana is an overseas department of France, meaning it is legally part of the EU but runs three hours behind Paris in winter and four hours behind during French summer time. The Guiana Space Centre at Kourou, Europe’s primary launch facility, sits in this timezone. When the European Space Agency launches Ariane or Vega rockets from Kourou, the countdown runs on French Guiana Time while mission control teams in Germany and France are several hours ahead.

The city is largely equatorial forest, and Matoury shares the region’s equatorial climate: essentially constant day length of about 12 hours, warm and humid year-round. DST would accomplish nothing here.

Cayenne sits adjacent and shares this timezone. 9am in Matoury is 12pm in London during European winter.
