Our Business
We are a global player in the energy industry and a large producer of ammonia
THIS IS WHO WE ARE
A Joint Venture Operator, Point Lisas Nitrogen Limited produces anhydrous ammonia through contractual arrangements with the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago.
The PLNL fertilizer complex is the first ever facility to be located in the new Point Lisas Industrial Estate (North)
WHAT WE DO
The plant was constructed by Kellogg, Brown & Root Inc. (formerly The M.W. Kellogg Company) of Houston for Farmland Industries, Inc., and Mississippi Chemical Corporation who were the original joint-venture partners. The plant began production in April 1998.
In addition to being one of the world’s largest single train ammonia production facilities, the application of Kellogg's innovative Advanced Ammonia Process (KAAP) technology serves to uniquely optimise plant efficiencies.
PLNL is a leading producer of anhydrous ammonia
OUR PRODUCT
Most of the ammonia produced worldwide is used directly as a fertiliser or in the manufacture of compound fertilisers.
Industrial uses for the product include the manufacture of cleaning compounds, synthetic fibres, laminates and adhesives. Ammonia is also used as a refrigerant in large refrigeration systems.
