The Green Fund is an often-overlooked asset in Trinidad and Tobago. It has been quietly accumulating a significant amount of funds and is rarely ever tapped. At present, the fund contains over $11 billion TT dollars, but only around $326 million has ever been disbursed in 16 years. This data was recently released with the Auditor General’s Report 2024.

Trinidad and Tobago is the largest exporter of ammonia in the world. In 2024, the country produced more than four million tons and exported almost all of it, generating substantial foreign exchange in the process. Most ammonia goes into the production of fertilisers, though there are other uses.

In 2024, there were four major producers of natural gas in Trinidad & Tobago, namely bpTT, Shell, EOG Resources and Woodside. Together these companies produce about 95% of the country’s natural gas.  Almost all of this comes from offshore fields predominantly off the east of Trinidad and north coasts of Trinidad and Tobago.
