July 9 (LNGJ) - UK major Shell has taken a positive final investment decision to proceed with the Manatee natural gas project offshore Trinidad and Tobago to supply more feed gas to the Atlantic LNG export plant at Point Fortin in Trinidad. The Manatee gas field will provide backfill to Atlantic LNG as part of Shell’s strategy to boost utilisation at existing liquefaction plants.

   “This project will help meet the increasing demand for natural gas globally while also addressing the energy needs of our customers domestically in Trinidad and Tobago,” said Zoë Yujnovich, Shell’s Integrated Gas and Upstream Director. “The investment bolsters our world-leading LNG portfolio in line with our commitment to invest in competitive projects that deliver more value with less emissions,” she added.
