  • This is commercial finance, NOT a grant — full debt repayment or equity return obligations apply.
  • Commercially feasible enterprise with audited financials, feasibility study, and lender-grade documentation is required before OPEC Fund engagement.
  • Project must generate meaningful economic and social benefits in Tunisia — development impact must be explicit and evidenced.
Bottom line

Valid medium-term target (18–24 months). Build the lender-grade package first: audited financials, feasibility study, financial model, ESIA, offtake agreements. Then approach the OPEC Fund private sector team.

Agent advice

This is an 18–24 month horizon target — the Skhira pilot must mature from concept to a bankable operating platform before approaching the OPEC Fund.

Prepare the full commercial package first: audited financials, feasibility study, financial model, ESIA, and offtake agreements. Approach only when investment-ready.
