This book offers unique insight regarding the Nigerian government oil marginal field farm-out exercise which raised international concern over its ability to be fair, justified, and legal whilst requiring a cautionary application to avoid driving away investors.

Concluding the legality of the government farm-out exercise was drawn from a combination of the United Nations resolutions on developing countries sovereignty over natural resources and declaratory statements of the OPEC on member countries making policy development to take charge of their natural resources.
