LEX Africa launches New Guide to Oil & Gas in Africa
The African continent has abundant petroleum resources and a thriving upstream oil and gas industry. Appropriate legal regimes are necessary to deal with the peculiar challenges and constraints related to the development and utilisation of oil and gas resources.
In addition, the exploration and production of oil and gas resources requires significant investment, and investors need to understand the laws, risks and opportunities related to investments in particular countries before making investment decisions.
Says LEX Africa chairperson, Pieter Steyn, "we are delighted to present the LEX Africa Guide to Oil & Gas Investment and Projects in Africa which provides an overview of the legal, regulatory and commercial issues underlying upstream oil and gas regimes in 18 African countries. I thank contributing members as well as our Ghanaian LEX Africa colleagues at Bentsi-Enchill, Letsa & Ankomah who edited the guide".
