Dragon Gas Deal Is Back On: T&T Secures U.s. Backing For Energy Future
October 1, 2025-Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has announced a breakthrough in Washington, D.C., with the United States giving its full support to Trinidad and Tobago’s efforts to develop the cross-border Dragon Gas field with Venezuela.
The deal, which has faced years of delays and uncertainty due to sanctions and shifting geopolitical tensions, is once again on track. Officials say U.S. backing clears a major hurdle, opening the door for energy security, economic growth, and long-term stability in the country’s hydrocarbon sector.
Government insiders describe the development as a “critical win” that could reshape the nation’s energy landscape while strengthening its global partnerships.
