Journey to create opportunities in
Sierra Leone using Esri’s ArcGIS
Platform
Presented by:
John Clark, Getech Group Plc, on behalf of
The Petroleum Directorate Sierra Leone
Summary
• The mission of the Petroleum Directorate of Sierra Leone (PDSL) is to facilitate the exploration and development of the country’s petroleum resources for the long-term benefit of its people.
• This presentation shares some lessons from PDSL’s journey of developing GIS capabilities and creating GIS solutions to support that mission.
• ArcGIS now plays a significant role in supporting Sierra Leone’s upstream petroleum sector, providing data and intelligence to government departments, stakeholders and potential investors.
• The recently pre-announced Fourth Licensing Round will continue to use the ArcGIS Platform to promote and manage the licensing round data and support the participants.

PDSL- What we do
Pursuant to executive powers conferred by H.E the
President, Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma, the Director
General of the Petroleum Directorate administers
the Petroleum Exploration and Production Act
(PEPA), 2011 and reports directly to H.E the
President.
The Petroleum Directorate under PEPA 2001 has a
statutory responsibility for regulating the upstream
oil and gas sector, and ensuring that all Operators
conducting petroleum operations comply with the
applicable Petroleum Legislation and any other
regulation(s) or guideline(s) governing upstream oil
and gas operations in Sierra Leone.
The Challenge
• To create a platform that enables PDSL to efficiently manage and
regulate upstream petroleum data and licensing in Sierra Leone.
• Started with no ArcGIS licenses and limited GIS experience in
department.
– Engaged Getech Group to build internal competency in ArcGIS and
develop a spatial database/information portal.
• Objective is to attract investment into Sierra Leone using Esri’s
ArcGIS Platform for showcasing the opportunity.

GIS Products: Sierra Leone Digital Atlas (SLEDA)
• The Sierra Leone Digital Atlas (SLEDA)
is a joint project between the
Petroleum Directorate and ERCL to
create the first digital petroleum atlas,
both onshore and offshore, of Sierra
Leone.
• The atlas is based on material from the
PDSL archives including released data,
and released reports supplemented by
ERCL-Getech’s regional knowledge.
• The first release will be available during
Q4 2017 and can be licensed through
ERCL (Getech Group company).
