There is something to be said about trusting Trinidad over Exxon. But there are other issues at play too. Moonilal will be Trinidad First and needs to frame the ‘collaboration’ just right. Not easy.

Just consider if it were Barbados that became reliant on Guyana's assistance.
A reverse Grantly Adams bench would've been in the forecast. Revenge!

I remember in the eighties when the oil boom was in effect in Nigeria, they kicked out a ton load of Ghanan, years later they found their own oil!

and before that
and the influx of guyanese as pan boilers for the plantation / sugar industry in Bim
there is a long and storied history between Bim and Guyana
every Black guyanese Pres had a direct connection to Bim
and old bajan surnames, no longer common in Bim, are in Guyana

How has the world turns, last time T&T PM was in office she raved, criticized and embarrassed many Caribbean countries, including Guyana about her ATM. Now seems like she is the one who needs Guyana’s ATM.

Helping your neighbors is the right thing to do. Guyana has been the recipient of lots of help from her neighbors

TT will never need an ATM from the Caribbean,take a read about TTs Natural Gas discoveries.Trinidad has LNG as its main export not oil.There are 26 off-shore BLOCKS which covers 29000 sq.kilometrs.Auctions started a few months ago and ends in July 2025.There are 90 countries producing LNG at the moment TT is 24th,after this gas is extracted TT will jump to a few places higher,at the moment the potential find was said to be 60 trillion SCM.There's a reason why TTs Minister went to Guyana,TT has the ability to have the Natural Gas and export it,TT has the infstructure to change the NG to LNG making it easier to export,if Guyana don't want to do it,up to them,but Surinam is talking to TT about a pipeline to send their Gas to TT,and TT are also one of a few countries that is home to Natural Gas Processing Plants,I think Canada and USA are the others.
KAMLA'S GOVERNMENT NAH GO FI BEG IN DE CARIBBEAN NOT EVEN GUYANA

I have ignored this thread and made only one comment.
Reading the comments reflects a lack of understanding of the complexities surrounding the oil and gas sector, as well as the socio-economic challenges facing Trinidad and Tobago (T&T). It’s true that many discussions can often be filled with opinions from those who may lack the technical knowledge or experience in the industry. This poster's perspective sheds light on the need for informed dialogue rather than uninformed commentary. T&T is not begging but looking for opportunities should they be available.
Indeed, T&T's pursuit of opportunities in energy cooperation is crucial, especially given the historical context of financial difficulties stemming from past governance. The emphasis on collaboration and exploration of joint ventures could pave the way for sustainable growth. T&T has the entities to handle oil and gas already built.
It's clear that the road ahead will require patience and a collective effort from all citizens to foster resilience and innovation. The challenges of governance, especially in addressing crime, infrastructure, and economic stability, are significant but not insurmountable. It will take time and strategic planning, and the recognition of a three-year timeline for witnessing real change speaks to a realistic approach to these issues.
As the UNC government navigates these hurdles, it will be interesting to observe their strategies and how effectively they engage the populace in the process. Let's hope for a constructive dialogue that leads to meaningful progress for everyone involved.

I hope you read my post,TT do not need help from Guyana,the Minister from TT was just trying to help because Guyana does not have the infastructure for turning the NG to LNG,TT would of course be paid for that,what would Guyana do with the Gas,anyway TT has bigger than that with Venezuela in the Dragon Field in the boarders between Venez and TT.If ithe idiotic move by Rowley didn't happen with Maduro, Trump might have relented and not revoked the deal.When and if Maduro is kicked out the deal with TTwill start,don't doubt that it would start,there is gas for years to come.
Your interest in Kamla and TTs impending failures baffles me.
