The Na­tion­al Gas Com­pa­ny (NGC) has is­sued a for­mal no­tice to fer­tilis­er gi­ant Nu­trien in­di­cat­ing that all gas me­ter runs to the Point Lisas fa­cil­i­ty will be iso­lat­ed from to­day, ef­fec­tive­ly cut­ting off sup­ply and ac­cess to port op­er­a­tions.

The no­ti­fi­ca­tion could ef­fec­tive­ly mark the end of the Cana­di­an-owned fer­tilis­er pro­duc­er’s 45-year pres­ence in Trinidad and To­ba­go, in­dus­try in­sid­ers said yes­ter­day.

How­ev­er, Nu­trien man­age­ment yes­ter­day did not close the door com­plete­ly on its T&T op­er­a­tions.
