Keynote Presentation: Libya’s New Gas Exploration Cycle and Its Role in the Mediterranean Gas Context

Mikel Erquiaga Aguirre, Libya Business Unit Director, repsol delivered an insightful keynote outlining the strategic importance of Libya’s new gas exploration cycle and its emerging role within the wider Mediterranean energy landscape. His presentation highlighted how renewed exploration activity, improved geological models, and a growing commitment to unlocking untapped resources are reshaping Libya’s upstream outlook.

The keynote examined the Mediterranean’s evolving gas dynamics, including shifting supply patterns, regional demand growth, and the expanding relevance of North African producers in ensuring long-term energy security. Within this context, Libya’s resource potential, competitive cost profile, and geographic position were presented as key advantages for strengthening the country’s contribution to regional and European markets.

Mikel also discussed the opportunities created by new seismic data, advanced subsurface technologies, and targeted investment strategies aimed at accelerating exploration and development. His remarks underscored how a successful new exploration cycle could enhance Libya’s production capacity, support domestic economic recovery, and reinforce the country's role as a strategic Mediterranean gas supplier.

Expert Keynote Presentation – Bob fryklund, Chief Upstream Strategist, S&P Global Energy

Bob Fryklund delivered a comprehensive keynote examining upstream resource and supply trends across Africa in comparison to global markets. His presentation offered an in-depth look at the continent’s evolving exploration landscape, the competitiveness of African basins, and the shifting dynamics influencing investment decisions.

The session highlighted how Africa’s substantial undeveloped resources, improving geological understanding, and a new wave of licensing activity are creating renewed momentum for upstream growth. Bob also outlined the structural challenges that continue to shape the sector from infrastructure gaps and financing constraints to regulatory complexity and above-ground risks and how these factors compare to global benchmarks.

He emphasised that despite these challenges, Africa’s long-term potential remains significant, particularly as global demand for natural gas stays resilient and new opportunities emerge in frontier and mature basins alike. His analysis provided clarity on where the continent stands today, where the major opportunities lie, and what conditions will be required to unlock the next phase of upstream development.

A highly informative and data-driven keynote that added substantial value to the Forum’s strategic discussions.

LIVE from the Libya Africa International Gas Forum – Tripoli, Libya Expert Keynote by Eric Eyberg, Head of Global Gas & Power Consulting, S&P Global Energy

Eric Eyberg delivered a comprehensive and forward-looking keynote examining how global geopolitics is reshaping today’s energy landscape. His address provided a clear assessment of the forces driving renewed demand for natural gas, from rapid industrialisation to the expanding electricity needs of AI, data centres, and new digital infrastructure.

The keynote outlined how shifting geopolitical alliances, market fragmentation, and supply-chain pressures are redefining energy security priorities across regions. Eyberg emphasised that natural gas remains the most resilient hydrocarbon, with global demand projected to rise well into the 2040s, while LNG continues to expand as a flexible and strategic solution for countries with limited domestic resources.

He highlighted Africa’s emerging position in this new energy map, noting the continent’s growing demand base, strengthening upstream activity, and increasing capacity to contribute to global supply. Within this context, Libya was presented as a country with substantial potential to expand production, monetise resources more effectively, and reinforce its role as a strategic energy partner for the region.

The keynote offered valuable insights into how global market dynamics and regional developments intersect to create new opportunities for investment, diversification, and long-term growth across Africa’s gas sector.

A highly informative session that added depth, clarity, and strategic perspective to the Forum’s programme.

The Libya Africa International Gas Forum welcomed H.E. Mohamed Hamel, Secretary General of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF), for a keynote address that set a strategic tone for the discussions ahead.

The keynote focused on the rising importance of natural gas in meeting global energy demand, with projections indicating nearly 20% growth in primary energy demand by 2050 and an increase of more than 30% in natural gas consumption.

Attention was drawn to Africa’s significant resource base, holding around 9% of the world’s proven natural gas reserves, positioning the continent as a central player in future supply dynamics.

The address underscored Africa’s demographic momentum and the corresponding need for large-scale expansion in energy access, as more than 600 million people across the continent continue to lack electricity.

The role of natural gas in supporting industrialisation, food security, and the integration of renewable energy systems was also emphasised as part of a balanced and realistic energy transition.

Key priorities referenced included investment mobilisation, regulatory stability, modern infrastructure, and national capacity development to convert resource potential into long-term socioeconomic progress.

The keynote reaffirmed the sovereign right of nations to manage and develop their natural resources in line with national priorities and development goals.

Recognition was also given to the growing presence of African countries within the GECF, following the recent accession of Equatorial Guinea, Mozambique, and Senegal.
