Favorable Foreign Investment Law and Easing International Sanctions will help Myanmar Oil and Gas Industry to Attract Foreign Investments

Summary

Myanmar is emerging as an attractive investment destination for oil and gas companies with the EU and the US lifting previously imposed sanctions. The country has recently undertaken several positive measures to improve its perception as an investor-friendly nation. These include easing restrictions on media and the internet, liberalizing private imports of petroleum products and mooting a Foreign Investment Law (FIL) which is reported to be highly investor-friendly. Until now, there has been a limited presence of major international oil companies in Myanmar. In May 2012, its Ministry of Energy announced that foreign oil companies will be allowed to make upstream investments in 23 offshore oil and gas blocks in the country. Following the introduction of the new FIL, foreign investments in Myanmar, especially in its oil and gas industry, are expected to rise significantly
