The Trinidadian Prime Minister, Dr Keith Christopher Rowley, who is on a four-day working visit to Ghana called for enhanced cooperation between both countries.

During his visit to the Atuabo Gas Plant together with President Mahama, Dr. Rowley said "The gas pipeline is something that will serve Ghana immediately. Trinidad and Tobago is in a position to provide the technical and other expertise immediately."

"We are small and we have limited resources but in the areas where we have resources (we have) a 100 years or more experience and experienced personnel. We can bring that to bear and on these projects immediately."You are larger in Ghana and you have the resource base, but in terms of dealing with some of the third parties, you are in your infancy… so, there is a tremendous benefit if we do these things together," he added.
