Reinvention from Within: On The Island(s)

摘要

Unlike nearby Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago is not experiencing a flurry of activity for the first time. In fact, it is experiencing a downturn in activity after 100 years of mostly stable production. Though the nature of the energy sector is often cyclical, the reasons behind this slowdown in production are not simply due to changing headwinds in the global economy. As such, it is important to take a look at the sector and its challenges as they stand currently to understand how reinvention can be achieved from within. The country has no shortage of long-term players of all sizes who can provide an accurate commentary of the issues holding the industry back and how these have been addressed over the years.
