This is particularly poignant given that some of Ghanas neighbours and peers that have been producing oil and gas for several decades continue to suffer from the resource curse or paradox of plenty syndrome. Topics covered in the book include upstream licensing and contracting, regulatory regimes and institutional capacity, fiscal regimes, maritime border delimitation, and national oil company operations. Others include social inequities and injustice of Ghanas oil and gas, fiscal policy and revenue administration, local content, developing gas markets, and the potential impact of the energy transition. The book is a compilation of leading work on petroleum resource management practices in an emerging petroleum-producing country context. Petroleum Resource Management in Africa provides policymakers, industry and academia with a comprehensive distillation and synthesis of the operational context and the lessons learned from ten years of oil and gas in Ghana. At the same time, the findings in this book are articulated into a comprehensive series of core recommendations that serve as an international reference on Africas upstream oil and gas industry. It will be of interest to anyone interested in resource and development economics.
