Click to view full size

Former minister of energy Minister Kevin Ramnarine is forecasting that T&T could emerge as a major regional oil and gas processing hub over the next decade—an “industrial utopia” dependent on the successful development of deepwater resources and Venezuelan gas.

Ramnarine spoke last Friday at a webinar hosted by the Trade and Economic Development Unit of the University of the West Indies (UWI).

The webinar was entitled “Anticipated Macroeconomic Impact of Manatee on T&T.”
