One and a half months after a Cabinet-appointed committee was asked to review the proposal from the Oilfields Workers’ Trade Union’s Patriotic Energies Company Limited for the acquisition of Petrotrin’s Point-a-Pierre refinery, Government will today announce its back to the drawing board after rejecting the offer.
Well placed sources have told Guardian Media that the committee was of the view the proposal did not meet the minimum requirements and it was in the country’s best interest to go out and seek to engage another company to take control of the 100-year-old refinery.
