Dispute over energy project in Guyana to be discussed through arbitration

GEORGETOWN, March 6 (Reuters) - An international arbitration court will hear a dispute between Guyana and a consortium led by U.S. firm Lindsayca over a project awarded to build a gas-fueled power plant and a natural gas liquids plant, the government said on Thursday.

The International Chamber of Commerce will hear the parties in the dispute over delays to beginning construction on the project, which is expected to lower electricity generation costs in the South American country.
