Crescent Petroleum is uniquely positioned to identify and develop energy-related projects in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia (MENASA). This is the result of its long recognised status as an indigenous and independent private sector oil and gas operator, its management’s knowledge of the culture and business practices of the region and the Company’s strong relationships with both governments and oil and gas businesses in all countries of the region.

The key elements of Crescent Petroleum's business strategy are highlighted below:

• exploration and development of existing acreage, and the acquisition of additional exploration and producing properties in the MENASA region;
• expanding upon the existing arrangements to facilitate the development and expansion of the gas market in the MENASA region, with a view to becoming the largest private gas player in the market along with its affiliated companies;
• investment in pipeline interests; and
• participation in and development of oil and gas projects, utilising the Company’s strong relationships in the MENASA region.
