Australia's largest oil and gas producer BHP Billiton said it is interested in expanding to the Caribbean nation of Trinidad and Tobago despite some of its asset sales, according to a Bloomberg report.

Glencore Xtrata PLC, led by its chief executive officer Ivan Glasenberg, will be committing more capital in thermal coal than rivals BHP Billiton Ltd., Rio Tinto Group and Anglo American PLC.
As the second-biggest mining company in the world, Rio Tinto Group, struggles against the drop in mineral prices, the company resolved to reduce its capital spending to around USD8 billion in 2015.
Ian Dunlop, climate change advocate, is being campaigned against by no less than the BHP Billiton chairman for board director in the mining firm.
BHP Billiton did not confirm the reason for such return of oil and gas stakes in India.
A research conducted by Savills Plc ranked Singapore as the best value city for foreign investment.
According to a Bloomberg report, the biggest mining companies were set to spend USD244 billion on expansions amid Glencore Xstrata Plc's CEO call to end oversupply in mineral markets.
