Nigeria and Ghana's energy and natural resources sectors are transitioning from policy formulation to active implementation, with major infrastructure projects advancing and regulatory frameworks strengthening. As NLNG Train 7 nears completion and the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline secures funding, both nations are intensifying efforts to monetise resources, expand generation capacity, and attract mining investments while tightening oversight across petroleum, power, and mineral sectors.

The Nigerian energy sector, particularly the oil and gas industry, is governed by a complex web of statutory, contractual, and institutional frameworks regulating the exploration, production, transportation, and commercialization of petroleum resources. Owing to the technical complexity of operations, the multiplicity of stakeholders, including the State, multinational oil companies, indigenous operators, regulators, and host communities, as well as the enormous economic interests involved, disputes are an inevitable feature of the sector.
