The Libya Energy and Economic Summit, due in Tripoli from 23 to 25 January 2027, has named Delta United Group, NESR, SLB and Saudi Arabia’s TAQA as sponsors, organiser Energy Capital & Power said.
The release frames the sponsorships as a sign of investment in Libya energy infrastructure. The summit is backed by the National Oil Corporation and the Ministry of Oil and Gas, the organiser said.
What did the sponsors announce in Libya energy?
Delta United has signed an agreement with the General Electricity Company of Libya to convert the 740MW Tobruk power plant from diesel to LNG, which the organiser said would cut national fuel spending by $647mn a year. DNE Africa could not independently confirm the figure.
SLB restored its Libyan operations to an independent structure in March 2026 and has used automated drilling technology at the Al-Khair field, the organiser said. NESR announced a production services package worth more than $100mn across Algeria and Libya in August 2025.
What is the context?
The National Oil Corporation aims to raise output towards 2mn barrels a day. Libya’s politics remain divided between rival administrations, which has disrupted production in the past, as DNE Africa reported on UN efforts to broker a political deal. Details are on the summit website.
