Libya aims to push oil production above 1.5 million barrels per day by mid-2027. Can it get there?

The real measure of development is not how much a country spends, but what its economy gains from it.
Can Libya turn oil revenue into productive investment, stronger businesses and jobs beyond the energy sector?
Libya spends around $10 billion a year on development. But how much of that spending builds a stronger private sector and reduces dependence on oil?
Attracting investment is only part of the challenge. Turning spending into lasting economic growth is the real test.

Libya has restarted the Brega oil refinery after more than nine years offline.
The facility, operated by Sirte Oil Company, has a processing capacity of around 10,000 barrels per day. Its return marks a small but important step in restoring the country's ageing energy infrastructure.
Why does it matter?
Libya produces large volumes of crude oil but still relies on imported refined fuels. Restoring domestic refining capacity could help support local supplies, although Brega alone cannot solve the country's wider fuel import problem.
