Abstract

This chapter provides an analysis of the legal and regulatory framework of both Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana’s sovereign wealth funds. It discusses the legal regime of ownership of the mineral estate in Trinidad and Tobago. It discusses the procedure to obtain the Exploration and Production (Public Petroleum Rights) Licence and the Exploration and Production (Private Petroleum Rights) Licence, as well as the system of private petroleum leases in Trinidad and Tobago. The establishment and management of the Heritage and Stabilisation fund in Trinidad and Tobago is examined. In the second part of the paper the ownership of the petroleum resources in Guyana is discussed and some of the main features of Guyana’s Natural Resource Fund Act 2019 is evaluated. Also, a critical analysis of the legal framework in Guyana is undertaken and lessons from Trinidad and Tobago which can be useful to Guyana are outlined.
