Alessandro Bacci, Independent Energy Consultant, A Snapshot of South Sudan’s Oil Sector
According to BP Statistical Review 2007, at the end of 2016 South Sudan had 3.5 billion barrels of proven crude oil reserves, i.e., 0.2% of the world’s proven crude oil reserves. However, South Sudan, which got its independence from Sudan in July 2011, because of several problems, such as the lack of independent export routes, border disputes with Sudan, and since December 2013 an ongoing civil war, has not been able until now to consistently develop its oil industry; on the contrary, its oil production is currently declining.

Chiagozie Hilary-Nwokonko, Partner, Streamsowers & Kohn
We can speak most confidently about Nigeria; and here the story has not really changed over the past few years. The prolific nature of the Niger Delta means that it remains a hugely attractive terrain for oil and gas investments. As the majors divest from the Niger Delta to concentrate on the deepwater and in some cases, the gas export business, there are plenty of opportunities to pick up geologically low risk and yet world class assets. Domestic gas utilization is also an area of growth, which is increasingly being taken up by indigenous players such as Seplat. Marginal field opportunities will also grow.
