InteStrat Service Limited
The essence of InteStrat Services Ltd is to help clients unlock value through integrated strategies and risk management. The company’s definition of value is based on shareholder value, balanced with a positive impact on society and the environment.
InteStrat is passionate about Africa and the roles that businesses can play in creating a positive impact. As Africa is a major focus point for EnPath, and as more developed oil & gas companies offload their assets in Africa, we will need a clear understanding of how these actions will affect the host countries and affected communities regarding their development, livelihoods and emission targets. InteStrat is a leader in Africa sustainability and a good fit to help your projects succeed.
