Shell Proposes Monetization of Venezuelan Gas via Trinidad and Tobago’s Atlantic LNG
Shell is exploring a strategic framework to monetize natural gas reserves in Venezuela by leveraging the Atlantic LNG facility in Trinidad and Tobago.

The proposal aims to utilize established regional infrastructure to facilitate the export of Venezuelan gas, potentially bypassing the logistical and financial hurdles associated with developing new, large-scale domestic liquefaction capabilities. By integrating these resources with the Atlantic LNG plant, Shell seeks to create a more streamlined and efficient route to global energy markets.
This strategic approach underscores the critical role of regional infrastructure in unlocking untapped energy reserves. The initiative reflects a broader focus on operational efficiency and the pursuit of viable commercial pathways for gas monetization within the Caribbean basin.
