Africa

Saga represents Norwegian and Nordic principals across Africa. This is where we work, what we see, and how we think.

North Africa

Egypt — Africa's largest energy market — mature fields, active brownfield work, and a global maritime chokepoint. Saga works in Egypt because the operators are buying technology.
Algeria — A hydrocarbon heavyweight with tight-control energy policy. Brownfield thesis is strong; entry requires patience and a local partner.
Libya — Africa's largest proven reserves. The recovery is accelerating. The opportunity window is now.
Tunisia — Energy independence is declining. Aquaculture is rising. This is where the country is heading next.
Morocco — A gas-short economy building the pipes and ports to become Africa's Atlantic gateway. Upstream is small and early; the near-term opportunity is pipelines, ports and the blue economy.

Nigeria — Sub-Saharan Africa's largest economy and largest oil producer. Mature Niger Delta brownfields with tight-pay carbonates and declining production.
Ghana — West Africa's second-largest economy and an orderly oil producer. Jubilee is a maturing brownfield with credible technology buyers.
Senegal — The strongest Norwegian corridor in West Africa. Sangomar Phase 2, Petrosen operatorship transition, and a thriving fisheries ecosystem.
Cameroon — A patient, secondary play. Mature hydrocarbon production with security and governance challenges.
Côte d'Ivoire — West Africa's fastest-moving offshore story — Baleine has doubled national output in three years and Calao is next. PETROCI now operates its own mature fields, and that is where the near-term technology buyer sits.

Equatorial Guinea — A mature producer reinventing itself around gas — Punta Europa is being rebuilt as a regional LNG hub. Ageing oil fields need redevelopment partners, and the state is actively looking for them.

Angola — A mature oil-producing nation in transition — losing reserves faster than it is replacing them, but deepening its appetite for foreign technology.
Namibia — Frontier oil transformed into first-oil reality. The largest deepwater discoveries in Sub-Saharan Africa in a decade.

Mozambique — Gateway to East African gas production, anchored by Mozambique LNG's restart and a thriving fisheries corridor.
Tanzania — The East African story that Norway built. Equinor has been here 19 years. The appraisal wells starting now will define the next decade.
Kenya — East Africa's digital leader and regional aquaculture powerhouse. Kenya's real opportunity for Saga is fisheries, port automation, and AI-driven systems.
Uganda — First oil approaches. Lake Albert crude flows in 2026. Saga sees opportunity in aquaculture and fisheries alongside the megaproject.
