Comparative Analysis of Oil and Gas Legal Frameworks in Bangladesh and Nigeria: A Pathway towards Achieving Sustainable Energy through Policy

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 15(21), P. 15228 - 15228

Published: Oct. 24, 2023

The demand for energy remains a cornerstone of modern civilization, with the oil and gas industry critically meeting global population’s daily requirements. As continues to drive economic growth, propel climate change mitigation, underpin sustainable development, its management requires astute legal frameworks. This research delves into structures Nigeria Bangladesh’s sectors, aiming discern their alignment contributions towards achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7. Adopting library-based doctrinal approach, this paper intertwines conceptual insights comparative analysis. Our findings underscore that, while both Bangladesh have undertaken commendable strides SDG 7, current pace scope remain inadequate realizing holistic sustainability. It becomes imperative, therefore, regulatory landscapes evolve, integrating policy reforms resonant SDGs. emphasizes indispensable role robust legislative frameworks in nurturing fortifying nation’s infrastructure.
