The news bulletin issued on Wednesday, quoted Minister of Energy and Water Resources, Wilfred Abrahams, as saying: “While the Government of Barbados is aggressively pursuing renewable and alternative energy initiatives, it also recognizes the importance of diversifying the island’s energy portfolio to include offshore oil and gas development. He said that with prudent management, Barbados’ offshore oil and gas sector can offer significant opportunities for the Barbadian people, not only in terms of revenue generation but also in relation to institutional strengthening, capacity building, job creation and technological advancement. “This has been a long time in coming, and the Government is eager for BHP to get started,” he said. It said the Carlisle Bay and Bimshire blocks are located between 40 km to 140 km southeast of Barbados, collectively totalling approximately 5,000 km2, and are generally located in waters ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 metres in depth. |
