South Sudan Courts Oil Investors as War Rages Next Door
Original: South Sudan Is Courting Oil Investors. The Risks Sit Across the Border
South Sudan is stepping up efforts to attract investment in its vital oil sector, seeking foreign capital to revive output and shore up government revenues. The challenge is geography: its main export pipeline runs through war-torn Sudan, where fighting between the army and the Rapid Support Forces has repeatedly disrupted flows and payments. Analysts warn investors face pipeline insecurity, payment risk and a fragile peace at home, complicating Juba's pitch.
Why now: Ongoing conflict in Sudan threatens South Sudan's only oil export route, making its investor push look both urgent and highly risky.
