Libya is rapidly stepping up efforts to capture and commercialize associated gas, driven by new discoveries, revived fields and targeted reinvestment. Recent advances, including OMVs find in Block 106/4, Zallaf’s Chadar field start-up and new output from the G1-NC4 well, highlight the National Oil Corporation's (NOC) push to channel more gas into power supply and long-term monetization, with major onshore and offshore projects accelerating across the Sirte Basin and the Bouri field.

In parallel, smaller-scale initiatives in the Murzuq Basin, including proven flare-reduction and gas-to-power systems at the Sharara field, demonstrate viable models for rapid deployment across Libya’s remote assets. With the country still among the world’s top gas flarers, the NOC is prioritizing partnerships for reinjection technologies, modular processing, flare-gas recovery and fast-track power solutions—opening strong opportunities for engineering, EPC and technology providers as Libya advances a new wave of gas monetization and infrastructure development.

Global gas markets are becoming more competitive, putting pressure on export-driven strategies. At the Invest Invest In African Energy Forum (IAE) 2026 in Paris, a key panel will examine how African producers can strengthen price resilience by channeling more gas into domestic power, industry and infrastructure, securing stable demand amid expected price softening in 2026.

For Africa, this shift underscores the value of building strong home-market demand. Examples such as Angola’s Quiluma–Maboqueiro development, Senegal’s Yakaar-Teranga strategy and Nigeria’s Escravos-Lagos system show how domestic utilization can complement export revenues. At IAE 2026, stakeholders from governments, utilities, industry and global investors will examine how integrated planning, infrastructure investment and supportive regulation can accelerate domestic consumption and create new opportunities across power, industry and midstream development.
