S&P lowers National Gas view to negative
Standard & Poor’s said it revised the outlook on the National Gas Co. of Trinidad & Tobago Ltd. to negative from stable and affirmed its A- rating.
The agency also said it affirmed the BB rating on the Petroleum Co. of Trinidad & Tobago Ltd. (Petrotrin).
The outlook on Petrotrin remains stable.
The outlook revision on National Gas reflects the similar action on Trinidad and Tobago, S&P said, and is in line with the criteria for government-related issuers.
The likelihood of extraordinary government support to National Gas is very high, which allowed a three-notch lift to the company’s stand-alone credit profile, the agency said.
