Ramps Lo­gis­tics Guyana has said it was de­nied a lo­cal con­tent cer­tifi­cate which it needs to op­er­ate in Guyana’s en­er­gy sec­tor.

The com­pa­ny, which is head­quar­tered in Trinidad and To­ba­go, had pre­vi­ous­ly said that it had be­come now a 51 per cent Guyanese-owned Com­pa­ny af­ter di­vest­ing.

The Lo­cal Con­tent Sec­re­tari­at is, how­ev­er, tasked with ver­i­fy­ing this in­for­ma­tion be­fore is­su­ing cer­tifi­cates.

The no­tice is­sued by Ramps Lo­gis­tics is as fol­lows:

The re­cent­ly passed Lo­cal Con­tent Act stip­u­lates that a com­pa­ny must have a lo­cal con­tent cer­tifi­cate to op­er­ate in the Guyana En­er­gy Sec­tor. Ramps Lo­gis­tics Guyana Inc. has fol­lowed all the re­quired guide­lines to ap­ply for this Cer­tifi­cate and was de­nied.

Against that back­drop, we are host­ing a press con­fer­ence to share in­for­ma­tion that has re­cent­ly come to hand in the mat­ter that is rel­e­vant to all com­pa­nies and in­vestors seek­ing to in­vest in Guyana.

In a state­ment to­day the com­pa­ny said, "Our team con­tin­ues to en­sure safe and suc­cess­ful op­er­a­tions when han­dling all our projects. Re­cent­ly, the MV Sea­horse II trans­port­ed Si­los, an Off­shore Mi­ni Con­tain­er with equip­ment for the si­los, 20ft Con­tain­er, and 30 full tanks of HRP from Trinidad to Guyana. Our HSSE and Op­er­a­tions team en­sured this car­go's safe dis­charge with a 250-tonne crane and a 15ft fork­lift used in tan­dem to po­si­tion the si­los. Some of which were fur­ther trans­port­ed via 40ft flatbeds from the port to our client in Guyana. This equip­ment is es­sen­tial for op­er­a­tions in the Oil & Gas in­dus­try. We can def­i­nite­ly at­tribute the suc­cess of these op­er­a­tions to the ex­cel­lent col­lab­o­ra­tion be­tween our team mem­bers in Trinidad and Guyana."

Despite finding out just three days earlier—on December 23—that I had breast cancer, I still got dressed and showed up on December 26, Boxing Day, for a birthday party. I didn’t go to escape the truth. I went to remind myself I was still here, still living, still me.
