Aphrodite Gas Supply Boosts Outlook for Trinidad and Tobago Petrochemical Sector
What happened
The National Gas Company secured favorable gas supply arrangements from Aphrodite developments and EOG’s Coconut, which is expected to add 400 million standard cubic feet to the natural gas supply in Trinidad and Tobago. Despite this outlook, Proman announced it must implement targeted cost-saving measures and reduced headcount.

Why it matters
The expected natural gas supply from Aphrodite developments is presumably directed toward the petrochemical sector in Trinidad and Tobago. This supply boost contrasts with the need for Proman, a major petrochemical group, to undertake efficiency measures.
