Intertek Expands Petroleum Industry Services in Trinidad and Tobago
Posted: 2012-6-25
Intertek, a leading provider of quality and safety services to a wide range of
industries around the world, has expanded its facilities, capabilities and
expertise to better serve the growing demand for technical services and
expertise supporting the oil & gas industry in Trinidad and Tobago.
Intertek's newest investment in Trinidad includes an expanded office and new
laboratory in San Fernando (Marabella). The new facility provides important
cargo inspection and coordination services, laboratory testing, and other
services to customers via one central location. The building is designed to allow
for future expansion requirements, and accommodates personnel from
Intertek's Commodities and Industrial & Assurance divisions, along with
regional IT support.
Trinidad is a large oil & gas producer in the Caribbean region, with significant
reserves and production of crude oil and natural gas. As a result, Trinidad is a
major exporter of refined petroleum products including fuels, petrochemicals,
asphalt, liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and other
hydrocarbon commodities. Additional bulk cargos inspected and tested in
Trinidad by Intertek include minerals and agricultural products. For nearly two
decades, Intertek has provided cargo inspection and quality testing services to
domestic and international clients in Trinidad.
The Intertek Trinidad operation performs a regional coordination role for cargo
inspection and testing in Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia, Barbados, Martinique,
Guadeloupe, Suriname, and Guyana. In addition, Intertek's Technical Staffing
Services (TSS) personnel provide staffing solutions for major oil & gas projects
in Trinidad. Placements include production chemists, engineers, project
managers, client authorized representatives, and other technical and
professional positions.
Victor Pouchet, Regional Manager for the Caribbean and Central America, said,
"Trinidad and Tobago is an important market for Intertek in the region. We are
committed to investing further to grow and develop technical services in
Trinidad to support our clients."
