ALN Kenya has been at the forefront of delivering innovative and creative solutions to clients, leveraging deep market knowledge and expertise for seventy years. The firm continuously adapts to the evolving legal and business landscape, providing strategic advice to multinational companies like Africa Oil. By guiding such enterprises in exploring new markets and making a positive impact, ALN Kenya helps them achieve industry leadership.
ALN Kenya acted for Africa Oil Corporation Africa, Oil Turkana and Africa Oil BV in connection with contentious high-profile judicial review proceedings by Interstate Petroleum Company against the Ministry for Energy, and other parties challenging the grant of Petroleum Sharing Contracts to Africa Oil over several oil blocks in Northern Kenya at the High Court and Court of Appeal.
This dispute, the first of its kind in Kenyan courts, was resolved in favour of Africa Oil, allowing the company to continue its exploration activities. A different outcome could have halted exploration, deterred foreign investment, and strained diplomatic relations between Kenya and Ethiopia.
Through forward-thinking advice and effective dispute resolution, ALN Kenya underscores the importance of adept legal counsel in navigating Africa’s complex business environment.
