CSA Ocean Sciences Inc. (CSA) is pleased to announce that in early January 2011, it relocated its Caribbean regional headquarters to a larger, more centrally located office in Port of Spain, Trinidad.

“We’re pleased to have this opportunity to more firmly establish our presence in the Caribbean, particularly Trinidad,” stated Kevin Peterson, CEO of CSA.

CSA opened this branch office in Trinidad in 2006 to better facilitate in-country and regionally located projects by providing both a logistic and administrative base for operations, including local legal representation, accounting, and banking relations. In addition to its office facilities, CSA maintains a storage warehouse with a substantial inventory of marine survey equipment to expedite project mobilization, minimize start-up time, and maximize cost effectiveness. As necessary, this inventory is supplemented by the substantial marine survey equipment resources available at CSA's Florida facilities.

The Trinidad and Tobago branch office is managed by Mr. Carlyle Kalloo, a highly experienced Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) professional, with special emphasis on regulatory environmental enforcement, operational HSE implementation, and analytical laboratory techniques. As a former environmental regulator, Mr. Kalloo has been instrumental in the initial implementation of legislation pertaining to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process. He has managed and participated in this process through the scoping of various project types (including upstream oil and gas) that require impact assessment with associated studies to improve decision-making involving environmental issues by ensuring that project plans are environmentally sound and sustainable.

For more information regarding the capabilities of CSA’s Trinidad and Tobago branch office, please contact Mr. Kalloo by phone at 868-224-3466 or in person at Suite 108, Fitt Court, 9-11 Fitt Street, Woodbrook, Port of Spain, Trinidad, West Indies.
