Middle East Monitor: Libya’s future as a gas exporter is uncertain

125

The Middle East Monitor website stated that Libyan gas exports are under pressure due to the high domestic demand for gas and stagnant production, but this depends on political stability.

The website added that the future of Libya as a source of gas and the extent of its ability to meet local needs is highly uncertain, as political instability continues to obscure future prospects for future projects, whether in the energy sector, which consumes large quantities of gas in the country.

The site indicated that, theoretically, the production of gas sales should grow, allowing the country to meet the growing domestic demand and continue to export gas to Italy through the Green Stream pipeline.
