CHAIRMAN OF THE National Gas Company of TT Gerald Ramdeen said the Nutrien shut-down, which started on a phased basis in October, has resulted in other companies on the Point Lisas Industrial Estate improving their output.

Nutrien, a global supllier of fertilisers, announced the shut-down after a disagreement with NGC over port fees and the "lack of reliable and economic natural gas supply."

Nutrien produced about 85,000 tonnes of ammonia and 55,000 tonnes of urea monthly from its Trinidad facility.
