Energy, Oil & Gas
Oil and gas ventures in a market shaped by state participation through SNH.
Overview
Cameroon’s upstream petroleum sector is distinctive for the central role of the Société Nationale des Hydrocarbures (SNH), which holds state interests in petroleum agreements and participates directly in operations. Downstream and power projects are overseen by dedicated regulators, including ARSEL for the electricity sub-sector. ALPs advises investors on joint ventures, service agreements, regulatory compliance and disputes across the petroleum and power value chain.
