摘要：The Trinidad and Tobago economy continued
to register strong growth in the first quarter of
2006, with real output expanding by 3.6 per
cent and more significantly by 11.8 per cent
when compared with the corresponding period
in 2005. The main driver of growth emanated
from within the energy sector, particularly with
the commissioning of the Atlantic LNG Train
IV facility in December 2005, and the largest
methanol plant in the world, the M5000 in
October 2005. During the period these and
other activities within the energy sector led to
positive spill-over effects on the productive
capacity of the non-energy sector. The energy
sector grew by 7.0 per cent in the first quarter
of 2006 following growth of 14.6 per cent one
year earlier. The ¡®Other Petroleum¡¯ sub-sector
of the energy sector provided the major impetus,
with domestic output expanding by 8.5 per cent
largely as a result of the higher levels of LNG,
crude oil and natural gas production.
