Waha Oil Adds Two New Gas Wells in Libya

Waha Oil Company has brought two new gas wells into operation, a step aimed at improving Libya’s electricity supply.

The company tied the new wells into existing facilities, allowing gas to flow quickly into the national network. Most of the gas will supply power plants, helping ease fuel shortages that have often limited electricity generation in different parts of Libya.

With more gas available for power generation, electricity supply is expected to become more stable, especially during high demand periods. Natural gas continues to play a key role in Libya’s power sector as a more efficient and cleaner option than liquid fuels.

Waha Oil said its technical teams worked closely with national partners to complete the project, despite operational and logistical challenges. The company credited the success to the skills of its workforce and ongoing efforts to restore and improve field operations.

The new gas wells are part of Waha Oil’s wider plan to increase gas output, cut flaring, and support national infrastructure. In recent years, the company has focused on projects that quickly benefit the local market, particularly the electricity sector, which is critical to daily life and economic activity.

Waha Oil plans to keep investing in field development, maintenance, and production improvements to maintain output and develop more gas resources. These efforts support Libya’s goal of building a more reliable energy system and strengthening economic recovery, with Waha Oil continuing to play a key role in the country’s power supply and energy development.
