All this is bullchit and PNM playing it as they did in the past.

When PNM got rid of the trains they said it was not cost effective . Meanwhile a PNM scrap dealer made a ton of money from the scrap and the trains was sold to Brazil at that time. The upcoming car dealers pushed the PNM to get rid of the trains for their car sales.

Caroni Scraped not cost effective , Jah bless Guyana

Tanteak Scraped not cost effective , how much for teak now?

Lake Asphalt not making money, who supplies the world with roads ?

Iscott buss but Mittal became a billionaire because of the Pt lisas plant as his stepping stone.

Petrotrin is being played as not cost effective due to mis management just as caroni. There are serious players behind this and they are waiting for the sale. Guess they gonna make Billions.

Most don't know that Guyana has newly discovered large reserves of oil. Guess where is the nearness oil refinery to Guyana.

Can't disagree with that. Any non-effective company either made the next buyer or the competition loads of money, after its relegation.



Poor decision making.
Simply kept making poor choices

Photographer attacked outside A&V Drilling

Guardian Media photographer Kristian De Silva displays his damaged equipment after he was attacked while photographing A&V Oil and Gas in Penal, the company named in a Petrotrin internal audit.
Two men, including a senior police officer, yesterday assaulted a Guardian Media photographer while he was on official duty in Penal. Kristian De Silva was covering the fake oil fiasco and seeking an interview with the owner of A&V Oil and Gas, Nazim Baksh, in the southern part of the island at the time of the incident.

De Silva suffered injuries to his face after being cuffed several times by the men while at Nazim Avenue, San Francique Road, Penal, in front of the A&V Gas & Oil premises.

Around 2.30 pm, De Silva was standing on the road taking photos of the expansive compound when a black Toyota Hilux drove towards him in an attempt to run him over. De Silva stepped back to avoid the oncoming vehicle, only to see the vehicle coming toward him again. The driver then stopped, jumped out and accosted De Silva in an aggressive manner.

De Silva’s glasses fell to the ground and he identified himself as a Guardian Media photographer in an attempt to prevent the attacker from assaulting him further. However, the man, who was also shouting obscenities, began cuffing De Silva about his face, telling him he was on private property.

A second man who came in a second vehicle then hit De Silva on the side of his neck. This second individual was later identified by senior officers at the Penal Police Station as being a police officer.

At this point, De Silva’s colleague, news reporter Sascha Wilson, who was seated in De Silva’s vehicle a short distance away when the attack started, heard the commotion and on realising what was happening went to his assistance.

The second attacker then took up De Silva’s camera from the ground, where he had put it after he was first accosted, and walked towards Wilson and repeated that they were on private property.

When Wilson told him to hand over the camera, the man smashed it against a nearby security booth, which resulted in the camera shattering. Both men continued threatening and cursing the journalists. One of them then stamped on De Silva’s glasses before returning to the Hilux.

A security officer and another man who was painting a wall witnessed the attack, but they were warned by the assailants not to say anything. De Silva subsequently sought medical attention at the Siparia Health Facility and obtained a medical.

While De Silva and Wilson were filing their reports at the Penal Police Station last evening, the second man who assaulted De Silva arrived and began talking loudly, but did not interfere with the two.

Speaking about the incident, De Silva admitted to being severely traumatised. He said he could not understand why the men attacked him in the first place and especially after he identified himself as a member of the media.

“While everything was happening I said sir I’m from the Guardian newspaper and he said F the media, I don’t care who you are, you’re on private property, while I was on the road,” De Silva said.

“Before everything happened we asked the ... there was a security guard there, I asked him if the road was private, he said no. So I knew I was well within my rights to take pictures on the road, I never entered onto the compound of AV Drilling.”

Officers of the Penal Police Station are investigating.

Don't be naive, those CITIZENS are crooks planted by the politicians that are siphoning out the company's money to divert it back to their political party. GORTT is corrupt regardless of which skin colour or hair texture sits on the benches. The real skill is who can hide it better...

To a certain extent yes.
And that's a big factor now.

But...there is plenty corruption that is based on greed.

What's political about employees using meal allowances to buy non food in Gasparillo...and its billed under a food biz?

Or taking money from contractors to fudge time tickets..or volume of X y or z went into a well?

Employees have their culpability.

"Among the measures management has taken are:

· A further technical review of the adequacy and accuracy of its measurements within exploration and production is to be undertaken by an external firm."

I hope this is not an attempt at providing an excuse for V.D. due to lack of proper systems.

It's truly embarrassing that with over 100 years of oil and gas under our belt, the international population has no shortage of examples to refer to us as a nation of thieves!

1) Why isn't the Fraud Squad involved and investigating this matter?

2) Is Petrotrin going to attempt to retrieve the money it was defrauded of?

1) Report was preliminary so I guess they need it to be finalised and confirmed, as Redman stated, dot the I's and cross their T's

2) Nah, we go low Dem, so long as they don't do it again.

I honestly have no sympathy for these guys. While the journalist wasnt wrong, they are scum of the earth. They care about nothing but whoring themselves for a story. Such pests.

According to this article:

http://www.guardian.co.tt/news/2017-09- ... il-custody

"The cash-strapped company also intends “to recover any amounts of money that may have been overpaid to the contractor in the Catshill field and take action it may deem necessary.”"

"Harewood said from inception, Petrotrin’s management has remained steadfast in its determination to ascertain the facts, have regard to due process, recover such sums as may have been overpaid and take such other action as it may deem appropriate in the circumstances"

Lets hope this goes better than the review of the speed limits!

@Monkey Man, I will assume that you don't read, watch or listen to any form of news then.

I like to be informed, so I appreciate what they do!
It was good news to me when Paul Richards was appointed as a senator.
