Digitize license to Oil & Gas Exploration & production
Reform IDF243
DescriptionThe application process for obtaining and renewing the Oil & Gas Exploration & Production license is entirely manual, requiring applicants to physically submit documents, pay fees in person, and make multiple visits to the relevant department. This paper-based system takes up to 14 days to complete, resulting in delays, administrative inefficiencies, and increased compliance costs for businesses. The absence of a digital application and renewal mechanism creates unnecessary procedural burdens and slows down investment and operational timelines in the sector.
