100 years of Oil
















Commercial oil production in Trinidad started in November 1907 according to Higgins' a History of Trinidad Oil.

2007 marks the 100th anniversary of an event that is the foundation of our economic history. But alas, being a non-intellectual society....not a whimper from anyone.

Can we expect more from a "jump and wine" society? It seems that we are destined for regression into the bush.
