African Oil and Gas: The New Horizon
"Western nations want to diversify their sources of oil supply and Africa offers plenty of opportunity"
|
In energy terms, Africa is heterogenous. North Africa is resource-rich, but has to exploit its full potential. In southern Africa, energy poverty remains an important concern. Nonetheless, a common challenge exists across the continent – the need to invest in energy infrastructure.
In 72 concise pages, African Oil & Gas: The New Horizon investigates the state of the African industry. Twenty-two articles, written by Petroleum Economist journalists and leading industry commentators, include country profiles that cover the largest producing countries – Algeria, Angola, Libya, Nigeria, and South Africa – in most detail, but contain incisive coverage of the emerging nations, too. Other articles are dedicated to the refining industry, GTL and electrification.
Issue-based analysis includes the regulatory climate, trade and project financing, corporate social responsibility, and the challenge of HIV/Aids. |
