Heritage Petroleum Company Limited says it is investigating another act of sabotage.

A media release from the company on Friday said an upper valve was stolen at well #912 in Palo Seco, resulting in a mist of oil being sprayed onto a remote grassy area with less than three barrels of oil leaked.

According to the company, the well was discovered on Friday, December 28 2018 at 11:30 a.m. by HSE personnel and a response team was immediately dispatched. A new upper valve was installed to contain the well pressure and prevent further leakage.

The act of sabotage was reported to the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) at Santa Flora. The company noted that this is the fourth act of sabotage at Heritage facilities in four weeks.
