Energy, Oil, Gas and Mining

Tanzania is home to a flurry of discoveries of energy sources such as oil, gas and coal. Also available is large deposits of precious minerals such as Gold, Diamond, Tanzanite and other valuable minerals such as Uranium, Iron and so forth. Couple that with the persistent energy demand in Tanzania, surrounding African Countries and the world in general, there has arisen a need for large scale investment in the oil sector in general be it onshore or offshore. Currently with Oil and Gas discoveries in the shores and off-shores of the Indian Ocean the traditional public funding has proven insufficient and current economic conditions stand to aggravate the challenges of funding this global investment necessity and hence a number of investors have sought and seek to set up shop in the Country; or have their presence in the sector.

These large energy, oil, gas and mining investments are often cross-border and require expertise, techniques, innovation and creativity in their realization, with a need to draw on experience and best practices, as well as an ability to transpose those skills and practices to meet the demands and interests of the aforesaid investments in the norms of the Country.
