Today, thanks to our rigorous pursuit of quality standards such as the service classification of American Petroleum Institute (API), the Trinidad and Tobago and Caribbean markets are among the most advanced regions of the world.NP’s operations are vested in the authority of a Board of Directors—comprising professionals from various disciplines—which reports to the Minister of Energy and Energy Affairs on matters relating to the industry, and to the Minister of Finance as Corporation Sole.
