Point Lisas

Point Lisas is the site of the Point Lisas Industrial Estate and the Port of Point Lisas, both of which are managed by Plipdeco (the Point Lisas Industrial Port Development Company). Point Lisas is located in central Trinidad, immediately west of the town of Couva.

The Point Lisas Industrial Estate is home to a majority of the heavy industry in Trinidad and Tobago, including a steel mill (owned by Ispat) and a large number of methanol, ammonia and urea plants. It is also the site of two power stations and a large reverse osmosis desalination plant. Most of the industry located at Point Lisas is dependent on natural gas which is produced off the east coast of Trinidad and transported by pipeline across the island.

The Port of Point Lisas is the second largest port in the country and is a major cargo port. It also serves the heavy industry located in the area.

Point Lisas is administered by the Couva-Tabaquite-Talparo Regional Corporation.
