  • Which oil companies are exploring in Somalia?
  • International oil companies including Chevron, Eni, ExxonMobil and Shell began exploring in Somalia in the 1950s but bolted when the country erupted in civil war in 1991. Today, though, Houston-based Coastline Exploration is leading a renewed charge, having acquired seven offshore blocks from Somalia's federal government in 2022.
  • Is Somalia a potential oil source?

  • Why did oil and gas companies leave Somalia?
