There are two aspects to our work in Papua New Guinea’s (PNG) energy sector—energy extraction for export, and domestic energy production.

Since establishing our office in Port Moresby in the late 1960s, our team has been involved in most of the major energy projects in the country including upstream, midstream and downstream oil and gas activities including the major LNG projects, as well as contributing to the development of the energy industry itself.

On the export front, rely on us to guide you through the initial stages of exploration to extraction and transportation. We have been the long-term advisers to energy and resource companies, project sponsors, financial institutions, investors, PNG state-owned enterprises and the PNG government.

On the domestic front, benefit from our experience in renewable energy development, production and supply projects. This has been our remit as PNG seeks to expand access to reliable and affordable electricity across the country in line with its national strategic plan, Papua New Guinea Vision 2050.

Call on a team ready to advise on:

• Oil and gas including LNG
• Power
• Construction, infrastructure and utilities
• Manufacturing and transport
• Renewable energy

Multinational companies have the support of our teams close to company headquarters. As a global firm, we have the resources and service capability to handle the largest of projects.

Be supported by an “on the ground” team that has spent time in the country, holds relationships within government and the energy industry, and knows the region. Call on us.
