[1] Reports indicate that the
#Venezuelan
Floating Storage/Production Vessel, FSO
#nabarima
, currently located in the
#gulfofparia
, has approximately 1.2 million barrels of crude oil onboard & the vessel is in distress.
Why is this of concern to
#TrinidadandTobago
?
[2] The
#gulfofparia
is a semi-enclosed body of water located between
#Trinidad
and
#Venezuela
. The
#marine
#environment
is a very dynamic system. Any oil that is spilled in the
#gulfofparia
will likely be transported by the currents and reach the shores of both countries.
