Natural Gas and Green Hydrogen Sector Study in Mauritania

The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative is a global standard for the good governance of oil, gas and mineral resources.

EITI, the Extractives Industries Transparency Initiative, hired CrossBoundary Advisory to review the status and prospects for the development of the natural gas and green hydrogen sectors in Mauritania and the extent to which global carbon-reduction policies may hamper or support their development.

CrossBoundary completed a detailed report to inform policy discussions related to the development of both sectors. To support its analysis, CrossBoundary built a financial model to estimate the prospective impact of natural gas exports on government revenue, and a financial model to illustrate the financial feasibility of potential green hydrogen projects.
