This book explores the myriad issues that play out in the upstream
petroleum industry of Ghana from a legal perspective. Focusing on
Ghana as an emerging petroleum country, Thomas Kojo Stephens begins
by examining whether the existing constitutional framework will be
effective in governing the expanding oil and gas sector. Drawing on
various approaches proffered by other experts in the field,
Stephens looks at possible institutional structures that could be
put in place and juxtaposes these ideas with the experience of
Ghana to test the efficacy of these proposals. He also explores the
types of contractual frameworks currently implemented in Ghana for
comparison with other emerging petroleum economies, examining the
barriers to effectiveness, novel provisions that must be
incorporated and lessons learned from other regions. Finally, the
book highlights how vital it is for the Ghanaian State to monitor
the use of petroleum revenue and make ethical investment decisions
that prioritise the interests of Ghanaian citizens. Upstream Oil
and Gas in Ghana will be of great interest to students and scholars
of energy law and policy, oil and gas management and African
Studies more broadly, as well as those working in the upstream
petroleum industry.
