Oil and Gas in Africa
Author: The African Development Bank
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191571369
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The book, a joint work of the African Development Bank and the African Union, presents a comprehensive analysis of the oil and gas resources in Africa. It uniquely highlights, through country examples, and with an African focus but a global perspective, the specific challenges and constraints facing the continent as a whole in the exploitation and utilization of its oil and gas resources. It partly draws on a model that simulates the impact of high oil prices on African economies, a model that was developed by the Research Department of the Bank in a separate study. The roles of AfDB and AU are analyzed, considering their differing, but complementary, mandates geared towards the development of the continent. Finally, the book includes recommendations on the future directions and actions for maximizing benefits of Africa's oil and gas resources.

Africa’s Booming Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production: National Security Implications for The United States and China
Author: David E. Brown
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304866270
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Two key long-term energy trends are shifting the strategic balance between the United States and China, the world's superpower rivals in the 21st century: first, a domestic boom in U.S. shale oil and gas is dramatically boosting America's energy security; second, the frenetic and successful search for hydrocarbons in Africa is making it an increasingly crucial element in China's energy diversification strategy. America's increasing energy security and China's increased dependence on energy imports from Africa and the Middle East until well past 2040 despite its own shale discoveries will make Beijing's own increasing energy insecurity be felt even more acutely, pushing the People's Liberation Army to accelerate adoption of a "two ocean" military strategy that includes an enduring presence in the Indian Ocean as well as the Pacific Ocean.

Oil Wealth and Development in Uganda and Beyond
Author: Arnim Langer
Publisher: Leuven University Press
ISBN: 9462702004
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
Multidisciplinary perspectives to governance of oil in African countries Large quantities of oil were discovered in the Albertine Rift Valley in Western Uganda in 2006. The sound management of these oil resources and revenues is undoubtedly one of the key public policy challenges for Uganda as it is for other African countries with large oil and/or gas endowments. With oil expected to start flowing in 2021, the current book analyses how this East African country is preparing for the challenge of effectively, efficiently, and transparently managing its oil sector and resources. Adopting a multidisciplinary, comprehensive, and comparative approach, the book identifies a broad scope of issues that need to be addressed in order for Uganda to realise the full potential of its oil wealth for national economic transformation. Predominantly grounded in local scholarship and including chapters drawing on the experiences of Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya, the book blazes a trail on governance of African oil in an era of emerging producers. Oil Wealth and Development in Uganda and Beyond will be of great interest to social scientists and economic and social policy makers in oil-producing countries. It is suitable for course adoption across such disciplines as International/Global Affairs, Political Economy, Geography, Environmental Studies, Economics, Energy Studies, Development, Politics, Peace, Security and African Studies. Contributors: Badru Bukenya (Makerere University), Moses Isabirye (Busitema University), Wilson Bahati Kazi (Uganda Revenue Authority), Corti Paul Lakuma (Economic Policy Research Centre), Joseph Mawejje (Economic Policy Research Centre), Pamela Mbabazi (Uganda National Planning Authority), Martin Muhangi (independent researcher), Roberts Muriisa (Mbarara University of Science and Technology), Chris Byaruhanga Musiime (independent researcher), Germano Mwabu (University of Nairobi), Jackson A.

Africa's Petroleum Industry

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 8
Book Description
This presentation on Africa's petroleum industry makes the following key points: (1) West Africa is a strategic supplier to the U.S./global market, (2) Africa's role in the global market is expected to increase in the medium term, (3) China and India represent competitors with additional bargaining tools -- downstream investment and abundant capital, (4) threats to stability of supply are more internal than external, and (5) increasing political stability in producer countries is the key to reducing supply risk. The briefing charts discuss the following topics: why is African oil strategic?, Africa's increasing importance as an oil producer and supplier, Chinese and Indian influence in Africa in terms of competition for oil supplies and investments in African refining, vulnerabilities in infrastructure and threat of supply disruption, enhancing U.S. energy security, and policy steps the United States could take to enhance its energy security vis-a-vis Africa. The briefing charts include tables, figures, and graphs that present the following information: the top producers, consumers, exporters, and importers of oil in the world; global oil production by region; the top producers and consumers of oil in Africa; the top 15 oil suppliers to the United States; expected market value of West African crude oil production; and a forecast of oil production in Africa from 1981 to 2019.

Africa's New Oil
Author: Celeste Hicks
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1783601140
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The development of Africa's oil has greatly accelerated in recent years, with some countries looking at the prospect of almost unimaginable flows of money into their national budgets. But the story of African oil has usually been associated with conflict, corruption and disaster, with older producers such as Nigeria having little to show for the many billions of dollars they've earned. In this eye-opening book, former BBC correspondent Celeste Hicks questions the inevitability of the so-called resource curse, revealing what the discovery of oil means for ordinary Africans, and how China's involvement could mean a profound change in Africa's relationship with the West. A much-needed account of an issue that will likely transform the fortunes of a number of African countries – for better or for worse.
