Paria Fu­el Trad­ing Com­pa­ny Lim­it­ed has said it wel­comes Gov­ern­ment’s de­ci­sion to es­tab­lish a Com­mis­sion of En­quiry to probe the cir­cum­stances sur­round­ing the re­cent ac­ci­dent in which four divers lost their lives, and the op­por­tu­ni­ty to set the record straight.

The com­pa­ny is­sued the fol­low­ing state­ment, a short while ago…

“Paria Fu­el Trad­ing Com­pa­ny Lim­it­ed (Paria) wel­comes the Gov­ern­ment’s de­ci­sion to es­tab­lish a Com­mis­sion of In­quiry and looks for­ward to pre­sent­ing the facts on the in­ci­dent which took place on Fri­day 25th Feb­ru­ary 2022 in­volv­ing five divers at Paria’s fa­cil­i­ty in Pointe-a-Pierre.

With re­spect to the me­dia re­lease dat­ed March 07, 2022, Paria al­so takes this op­por­tu­ni­ty to clar­i­fy and re­in­force that the de­ci­sion to pre­vent fur­ther en­try by LM­CS divers in­to the 30” pipeline dur­ing the search and res­cue ex­er­cise on Fri­day 25 Feb­ru­ary 2022 was made by Paria and sup­port­ed by the TT Coast guard and oth­er ex­ter­nal ex­perts.

OSH is cur­rent­ly con­duct­ing its own in­ves­ti­ga­tion in­to the in­ci­dent and PARIA is ful­ly com­mit­ted to mak­ing avail­able all rel­e­vant doc­u­ments and in­for­ma­tion to the in­ves­ti­gat­ing team, and we look for­ward to the com­ple­tion of the in­ves­ti­ga­tion.”
