PETROSEN
Description
The Senegalese National Oil Company, PETROSEN, was created in May 1981 to serve as the implementing tool for the State's petroleum policy.
PETROSEN is under the supervision of the Ministry in charge of the Energy sector, which through its Department of Energy ensures the control and follow-up of petroleum operations based on the Petroleum Code.
PETROSEN, in collaboration with the Department of Energy, prepares and negotiates all petroleum conventions and contracts. Conventions and Production Sharing Contracts (PSC) are signed between the Minister of Energy and the petroleum companies, while PETROSEN signs a Joint Operating Agreement (JOA).
