SHELL Trinidad and Tobago Ltd, a subsidiary of Shell plc, has taken a final investment decision to begin production on the Aphrodite project, an undeveloped gas field in the East Coast Marine Area (ECMA).

In a statement, Shell said Aphrodite will allow the company to incrementally expand its integrated gas business by building on existing developments in the ECMA, one of the country’s most prolific gas-producing areas.

"The ECMA is currently home to Shell’s largest gas-producing fields in the country including Dolphin, Starfish, Bounty and Endeavour."
