Cana­di­an fer­tilis­er gi­ant Nu­trien Ltd has com­plete­ly shut down its four am­mo­nia plants and one urea plant, de­spite talks by Gov­ern­ment to re­solve their port fee dis­pute.

The move marks a sig­nif­i­cant de­vel­op­ment in T&T’s en­er­gy land­scape, with im­pli­ca­tions al­ready rip­pling across in­ter­con­nect­ed in­dus­tries.

Nu­trien’s four am­mo­nia plants have a ca­pac­i­ty of 1.79 mil­lion met­ric tonnes per an­num, ac­cord­ing to the Min­istry of En­er­gy’s web­site.
