Menas Borders is a politically independent and completely confidential source of information, advice and analysis for national and sub-national governments, organisations, companies and individuals requiring assistance in understanding complex onshore and offshore territorial and boundary issues.

We take a multi-disciplinary approach to boundaries - working closely with lawyers, cartographers, geologists, anthropologists, historians and archivists where necessary - to deliver enhanced understanding for our clients. Between us, we have decades of practical hands-on experience in advising both governments and natural resources companies about their onshore and offshore border-related questions.


Our clients include law firms working on behalf of national governments and oil and gas companies, and in addition, we have been instructed directly by governments and private and public sector companies.


Our newsroom is updated regularly with all of the important developments in international politics and our analysis section will provide you with more in-depth knowledge on the crucial disputes around the world.

The analysis section includes the following:

  • The border focus section features the historical background and contemporary happenings of relevant border disputes.
