Spurred by important offshore discoveries of natural gas made since 1994, Trinidad and Tobago is experiencing a major surge in exploration. Most of this activity is aimed at finding new gas deposits off the northern and southeastern coasts of Trinidad, the larger of the two islands. Amoco Corp., Broken Hill Pty. Co. Ltd. (BHP), British Gas (BG), Elf Aquitaine, Enron Corp., Mora Oil Ventures Ltd. (owned by a Trinidadian investor), Repsol SA, and Texaco Inc. currently are involved in exploration programs of differing dimensions--either as operators or as partners in consortia. Companies also are negotiating new concession contracts with the Trinidadian government and are studying the possibility of making offers to explore nine deepwater blocks in the Atlantic Ocean to the east and northeast of the main island. This paper discusses reserves, production, Amoco`s and Enron`s activities, offshore exploration, and onshore work.
