Environmental Issues: Overuse of pastures
and subsequent soil erosion attributable to Population
pressures; desertification; deforestation of tropical
rain forest (in response to both international
demand for tropical timber and to domestic use
as fuel), loss of biodiversity; soil erosion contributing
to water pollution and siltation of rivers and
dams; inadequate supplies of potable water.

International Environmental Agreements: A
party to Conventions on Biodiversity, Desertification
and Law of the Sea.
*
The total energy consumption statistic includes
petroleum, dry natural gas, coal, net hydro, nuclear,
geothermal, solar and wind electric power. The
renewable energy consumption statistic is based
on International Energy Agency (IEA) data and
includes hydropower, solar, wind, tide, geothermal,
solid biomass and animal products, biomass gas
and liquids, industrial and municipal wastes.
Sectoral shares of energy consumption and carbon
emissions are also based on IEA data. **GDP based

Oil:
The Engine of Angola’s Economy
Producing
more then 800,000 barrels per day, Angola is the second
largest oil producer in sub-Saharan Africa. Oil accounts
for 90 percent of total exports, more than 80 percent
of government revenues and 42 percent of the country’s
GDP.
Oil
output is expected to reach one million barrels per
day by the year 2000. Since 1996 gigantic new discoveries
are made and the country’s known recoverable reserves
are currently estimated to total more than 7.7 billion
barrels, but continuing exploration finds new reserves
at the same rate oil companies deplete old ones.
Approximately
15 foreign companies including Chevron, Texaco, Exxon
and Occidental, have invested more than $8 billion
in Angola. Oil companies are attracted by Angola’s
low operating costs, favourable geology and good business
terms. US firms continue to invest more money in Angola.
Chevron, which has been operating in Angola for over
40 years, announced it has discovered four new offshore
fields with 300 million barrels of recoverable oil.
Between 1994 and 1998, Chevron had put forward a plant
to develop deep-water oil field off Angola for more
than 25 years and will invest $600 million to develop
new fields. Halliburton was recently awarded a $20
million contract to develop oil services in Cabinda
province which will benefit all oil companies operating
there.
