Unplug all jvc pricesmart tvs ....just sayin

[redmanjp]

use yuh lasco instead of ac

[gastly369]

Better we go back to oil lamp we....

[zoom rader]

Better we go back to oil lamp we....

We can't as we no longer produce kerosene thanks to PNM

[Ben_spanna]

Hmmm
Gas issues
Electricity problems
Water shortages

Bess I go and buy up toilet paper... :

[pugboy]

nah we good with toilet paper and soaps
plenty selling on the highways

Ah was going to say yuh go hadda buy a generator jus' now buh at the rate things going yuh eh even go be able to get gas.

Grate is the Pee oN forkin' deM...

[maj. tom]

^ hmm... i was quite skeptical when people were saying around 2017 that PNM would make Trinidad get like Venezuela.
But wtf now. We living it!!!

[vaiostation]

Government trying to make de venes feel at home, no water, electricity, high inflation, etc
..

[De Dragon]

Ollour dotish, this is JUHN Scarfy master plan to "Venezualize" here to get rid of the Venezuelans.

[aaron17]

Thought u quoted for intense heat that day to yes..lewwe hope rain come.

it was very easy to see. we failed as a country u know, i been saying this years now. the only thing that can change things is a revolution. and even that is no guarantee for positive change.

[Toyopet]

Same, I tried to remain open minded and believe that the GORTT had a plan but this is ridiculous.

[hydroep]

Sh!tkicker and dem limping toward the next election hoping the roof doh collapse before the polls close. Buh things falling apart quicker than expected.

Like another trip to Les Coteaux in order...

add today’s traffic nightmare in pos

[carluva]

I'm just curious, looking at the comments...

How is an expansion or upgrade to the gas network such a bad thing, even if there is the possibility of electrical interruption?

At least they were proactive with the communication and didn't cut electricity and then provide an update.

[toyolink]

This particular advisory raises questions about the present situation with the NGC transmission network.
An expansion of the NGC network doen't jive with the prevailing supply and consumption network and even if new transmission or distribution legs for new off-take points need to be commissioned valves and stations are there for purposes of isolating work to be done.
What has historically created a situation for 'shut-down' has in the past been high levels of liquid contamination of the system at a major collection or controller facility and today by-pass loops and valve are supposed to be in place.
There is also supposed to be insurance for many hours using 'line-pack' (ie gas under pressure in the major transmission lines).
I recall the mandate as being, T&TEC must be the last consumer to be ever hit with any shortages.
These things dont happen like a thief in the nite unless there is an unforseen event.

[carluva]

That's the problem here. There is too much conjecture from persons who speculate and state comments that sound sensible but are really unfounded.

There's always something called maintenance and as with everything else, some types of maintenance cause the potential for interruption.

Oh yes, and ptn, isolation via valves and stations is not always possible. That's why something called hot taps are sometimes needed. I am not saying that is the case here, but just know with any type of transmission work, there are always risks, and this communication is likely a risk management mechanism they NGC and TTEC have adopted. There is absolutely no correlation between this notification and gas supply. Comments need to have bases to them and not contain baseless information attempting to sound intelligent.

[goalpost]

TTEC electrical transmission system is extremely robust & reliable. The response from TTEC personnel when there is some kind of failure on the transmission system is generally quick & is treated with importance from senior personnel, so no, there is no indication that Trinidad is reaching Venezuela levels, in terms of electrical transmission & distribution reliability.

Had to defend TTEC dey.

Yeah overtime gets the ball rolling

[jhonnieblue]

Expansion is for CGCL. The ngc station in question is the interconnection at la brea on union industrial estate

[redmanjp]

So what time they finishing? I turn off AC and waiting to use d dryer.
