Trinidad and Tobago Energy Conference - Energy and Entrepreneurship

February 7-9th 2010 at the Hyatt Regency Trinidad

Why Attend?

The Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference is simply the premier event covering the dynamic Trinidad & Tobago energy sector. It is the biggest and the best event that gives you all the information you need about the our well developed hydrocarbon and petrochemical sectors, the emerging neighbouring Guyana/Suriname basin and new opportunities in renewable energy in the region.

View some facts on the TT Energy Sector.

The annual Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference has been a feature of the local energy sector since 1988 and is organised by the industry for the industry. It is the one time in the year when you can meet everyone who you need to meet in one place in a two day period. In addition to informative presenters and panel discussions we have plenty of networking opportunities, including a cocktail reception and a gala dinner and a concurrent trade show. You get all of this for your one very competitive registration fee.

This year we have even added on some real Trini flavour through a link up with the prestigious University of the West Indies carnival fete.

There have been lots of changes in the Trinidad & Tobago energy sector over the past year, and if you want to do business in the sector you need to make sure you have of the information and contacts that you need:

Over the past 12 months, since the last Energy Conference, we have had:

  • A change of Government.
  • A new Minster of Energy and Energy Industries and other Governmental leaders.
  • A change in the global and local leadership in bpTT: a 470,000 boedp company.
  • New Boards of Directors of the three major state-owned energy companies.
  • A new fiscal regime for both the traditional oil sector and new exploration blocks.
  • Cross border unitisation agreement between T&T and Venezuela for the estimated 7.3 tcf Loran/Manatee field
  • Four new off-shore exploration blocks allocated and the entry of new players: Centrica Energy, Niko Resources and RWE.
  • An open deepwater bid round: attracting significant interest from the majors – closes on the 18th February 2011.
  • Commissioning of the US$ 2 billion MHTL AUM I project, with an investment decision on AUM II pending.
  • Cancellation of the Aluminium Smelter and the announcement of a push for photovoltaic cell manufacture.
  • New fiscal incentives for renewable energy.

Over the next twelve months there are some major new changes in the pipeline:

  • Must watch new major exploration offshore wells in the nearby Guyana/Suriname basin (ranked by Wood Mckenzie as one of the “wells to watch in 2011”).
  • Return to exploration drilling in the Trinidad & Tobago offshore.
  • New T&T energy policy: consultation process on-going.
  • Decisions on the future of the state-owned oil production company.
  • Decisions on new downstream projects – ammonia and derivatives.
  • Potential for further cross border gas development and perhaps some long awaited decisions on Plataforma Deltana.
  • New major Trinidad & Tobago investments into Ghana gas processing.

The Energy Chamber
The Energy Chamber

The Energy Chamber is the representative organization for the Trinidad & Tobago energy and related sectors. We are based in the City of San Fernando, a member of the World Energy City Partnership and the traditional hub of the energy and heavy industrial sectors. Membership of the Chamber is, however, drawn from across the country and beyond. Founded in 1956, the Chamber is an independent a-political organization governed by a Council elected annually from amongst the membership. The Chamber has a strong tradition of vigorously and effectively representing our members' interests and for significantly contributing to national development.

The Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference (formerly the Trinidad & Tobago Petroleum Conference), since 1989, is organised by the Energy Chamber, the representative association for the Trinidad & Tobago energy sector (www.energy.tt). It is a well respected and well established energy conference and widely regarded as the premier energy sector event in the Caribbean region. The vision of the Chamber is to steer the energy sector of Trinidad & Tobago and the wider Caribbean from mere hydrocarbon extraction to sustainable development.

The annual conference attracts members and non-members from around the region and is a prestigious event on the international conference circuit. The Energy Conference continues to grow in scope and importance and for the past two years has incorporated both a Workshop and Tradeshow element.
