The article reviews the Albertan and Nigerian gas flaring regulatory frameworks, examines theirdifferences, and attempts to determine the extent to which certain aspects of the Alberlan framework can (not) be adopted in Nigeria. In this regard, the author also offers a brief review of various legal transplant theories and a background of regulation in both jurisdictions. The author ends by offering suggestions as to what concepts and principles may (not) be viably transferred.
