June 03, 2025 [Reuters]- Exports of liquefied natural gas from Trinidad and Tobago’s flagship Atlantic LNG export facility increased by 43% in May compared to April, according to LSEG preliminary ship tracking data.
Trinidad is Latin America’s largest LNG exporter and its flagship plant, Atlantic LNG, is jointly owned by Shell and BP with a capacity to produce 12 million metric tons per annum (mtpa) of the superchilled gas.
In May Atlantic exported 0.83 mtpa of LNG, up from 0.58 MT in April, LSEG data showed.
Similar to the U.S., Europe bought the majority of cargoes sold by Atlantic, while the rest went to Asia and Latin America.
BP has made Trinidad and Tobago one of its focus areas for growth of its upstream production and in May announced first gas from its Mento following April’s announcement of first gas from its Cypre development, both offshore Trinidad.
