Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has announced plans to send a diplomatic delegation to Venezuela to advance oil and gas discussions.
She made the revelation while speaking at the Penal Fire Station this afternoon.
Last week, Reuters reported that Shell was in advanced talks with the Venezuela for the development of four large areas containing natural gas near Trinidad and Tobago.
According to the report, Shell is expected to send Venezuelan gas to Trinidad to be processed into LNG for export, which will support the Atlantic LNG project, which has been operating below capacity due to limited gas supply.
