Libyan Oil and Gas Market Opens Up

The award of the contract to help develop a new $1.6bn refinery in southern Libya in March 2023 is a significant step in the renewed and much-need development of the country’s oil and gas sector following years of political upheaval.

With demand continuing to grow and oil prices sitting at more than $80 a barrel, there is a greater incentive than ever for Libya to expand production capacity and tap into its estimated 48.4 billion barrels of proven oil reserves and 1.5 trillion cubic meters of natural gas reserves.

The work required is immense. After years of sanctions and then civil war, Libya’s oil and gas infrastructure is dated and operating at well below capacity. Huge investment is needed to rehabilitate upstream and downstream assets as well as develop new fields and export facilities.

In recent months a number of new project tenders have been launched. Zallaf, a subsidiary of the National Oil Corporation (NOC) is developing three new fields in the south and the associated export pipelines as well as the new refinery.

Offshore, Mellitah Oil and Gas, a joint venture between ENI and NOC, is proceeding with its plans to develop its Bouri gas field, while there are also moves for the North Gialo field development, multiple new water disposal and injection schemes, and pipeline upgrades.

With demand for oil and gas higher than ever in Europe as the Russia market collapses, there has never been a greater incentive for Libya to ramp up output from the 1 million barrels a day average today to the 3 million barrels it produced in the past. But doing say we require investment in the tens of billions of dollars.

Challenges

This will not necessarily be easy given the ongoing civil impasse between the east and west of the country. However, there is a much greater degree of stability today and a consensus that Libya needs to and can increase its hydrocarbons output for all.
