Meren Energy is a leading independent, full-cycle E&P with production and development assets in deepwater Nigeria, a leading carried position in the Orange Basin across Namibia and South Africa, and operated licences in Equatorial Guinea.
The name "Meren" is rooted in a nautical term that signifies the mooring of a vessel as it enters a dock. Drawing from the spirit of maritime legends who set sail in pursuit of new worlds and opportunities, Meren reflects the company’s ambition to identify and unlock potential in offshore energy.
Meren Energy was incorporated under the BC BCA on March 29, 1993 under the name ‘Canmex Minerals Corporation’. The Company later operated as Africa Oil Corp. until its rebrand to Meren in May 2025, a milestone that reflects the strategic evolution and renewed vision of the business.
