Libya Targets 4 bcf/d Gas Production Within Three to Five Years
Libya is planning to increase its natural gas production to at least 4 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) within three to five years, according to Libyan Minister of Oil and Gas Khalifa Abdulsadek. The plan aims to maximize existing hydrocarbon resources and strengthen domestic gas production.
The current production level is around 903 bcf of natural gas in 2025, equivalent to approximately 2.47 bcf/d. Of this volume, around 633 bcf was consumed domestically, highlighting the pressure from rising domestic demand on gas available for exports.
Abdulsadek stated that Libya has identified significant opportunities to raise gas output based solely on its discovered resources. The targeted increase would come from both non-associated gas and associated gas resources.
