PANAMA CITY, PANAMA (Piero Stewart, Energy Analytics Institute, 7.Jun.2025, Words: 370) — Trinidad and Tobago’s Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries (MEEI) is very focused on working with Shell to ensure the safe delivery of the Manatee project and first natural gas by 2027.
“This is an important step to right siding the shortage of natural gas that we inherited in April 2025 and which has negatively impacted industrial output, government revenue and foreign exchange earnings. Given the gas crisis we inherited, in the coming months we will be working with Shell to see if there are opportunities to increase the volumes of gas Manatee can bring to the Trinidad and Tobago economy,” MEEI minister Roodal Moonilal announced on 7 Jun. 2025 in an official statement.
