West Africa Focus
Practical partners across energy, infrastructure, and trade.
Glenthorne Partners operates across the energy value chain—supporting upstream services, midstream logistics, downstream distribution, and trade enablement for counterparties in West Africa and beyond.
WHO WE ARE
Independent, relationship‑driven, execution‑oriented.
We work with operators, asset owners, traders, distributors, banks, and risk carriers to structure pragmatic pathways from concept to operations. Our role flexes by mandate: facilitation, advisory, origination, or platform support—always anchored in disciplined execution and clear governance.
Neutral facilitator
We sit between counterparties to align interests, document responsibilities, and keep projects moving—with clarity around roles and economics.
Risk‑aware structuring
We emphasize transparent covenants, ring‑fenced cash flows, and appropriate risk transfer across contracts and coverage stacks
West Africa coverage
Our activity centers on West Africa, with relationships that extend globally across trading houses, service providers, and capital partners.
