Summary: | This report contains an assessment of
the approach that the Republic of Chad has adopted or plans
to adopt to enhance the benefits generated by the
exploitation of its petroleum resources, and to manage the
economic and social impact of such exploitation in a
sustainable and equitable manner. Its objective is to inform
the extent and prioritization of petroleum sector reforms,
which might be the object of technical assistance to be
provided by the World Bank and other development partners.
The report focuses on the upstream part of the petroleum
sector (exploration and production), where the largest
fiscal and governance gains can be achieved. The report is
necessarily a high-level review of geological potential,
laws and regulations, and institutional capacity and
organization pertaining to the petroleum sector. As such, it
is not a guide on how to secure private sector investment or
implement reforms. It was prepared in a short period of time
combining desk research and in-country stakeholders’
consultation with the accumulated knowledge from several
World Bank economic and sector studies and technical
assistance operations and reflects the openness of the
dialogue with the Government. Its findings are intended as
background for discussion with the Authorities with the aim
to identify a shared assessment of needs and priorities. |
