Mining, Energy, Oil and Gas Law Services

The mining, oil and gas industry in Tanzania is amongst the prominent economic industries, with the country’s endowment in numerous mineral resources and reserves. BOJOMA Law Group® provides top-notch legal services through counselling, representing and consulting local and international mining operators, investors and other actors with respect to procuring necessary mining licenses and authorizations, (re)negotiating of contracts, licensing and franchising, among others. Our solid team comprises experienced and devoted advocates and legal consultants who handle multi-disciplinary commercial mining-oil-gas undertakings touching ownership, financing, mergers and acquisitions, local content, capital markets and securities, corporate social responsibility, as well as tax and environmental compliance in all these crucial areas: mining, oil and gas.

In an era of rapid growth in Africa’s natural-resource and energy sectors, attracting and sustaining investment in mining, oil and gas, and power requires sophisticated legal support across a broad array of disciplines. Our firm guides investors, project sponsors and operators through complex regulatory landscapes and commercial transactions — from upstream exploration and production, mid-stream logistics and downstream processing, through to renewable power development, mining licences, infrastructure contracting and investment exits. Like globally-active practices in this space, we deliver integrated expertise across structuring, financing, regulatory compliance, transaction documentation and dispute avoidance. Regulatory and compliance matters form a foundational part of our offering. We assist clients in securing mining licenses, permits and tenure from the Tanzania Mining Commission, navigating petroleum upstream licensing and production agreements under PURA, and obtaining power generation, transmission and distribution licences under EWURA. We advise on regulatory audits, environmental and social-governance compliance, community and land-use obligations, and ongoing reporting requirements to Tanzanian authorities. In addition, we support inward investors seeking certificates, incentives and compliance frameworks under TISEZA and ZIPA — ensuring that the full benefits of investment regimes are realised while obligations are properly managed.

On the transactional front, our services span acquisitions, joint-ventures, farm-ins/farm-outs, project finance, construction and EPC contracts, off-take and supply agreements, asset securitisations and refinancing in mining and energy-oil-gas projects. We also advise on mid-stream logistics such as pipeline, LNG, storage and transportation arrangements, downstream refining and marketing operations, and the interplay of mining with energy supply and infrastructure. In the event of disputes or regulatory enforcement, we provide litigation and arbitration support, internal investigations, risk mitigation programmes and exit planning. By aligning with leading international practices in mining, energy and natural resources law, we bring global best-practice to the Tanzanian context. With our dedicated multidisciplinary team, we deliver pragmatic and commercially-oriented advice tailored to each project phase and jurisdictional requirement. Whether you are an investor seeking to enter the Tanzanian mining, oil, gas or energy market, or an operator navigating day-to-day compliance and contracts, we offer clear, outcome-focused solutions — complete with transparent fee structures, regulatory monitoring and post-transaction support.
