EnerGeo Alliance Joins LEES 2026 as Strategic Partner to Foster U.S.-Libya Energy Ties

EnerGeo Alliance Joins LEES 2026 as Strategic Partner to Foster U.S.-Libya Energy Ties

The upcoming Libya Energy & Economic Summit (LEES) 2026 conference in Tripoli is proud to announce a strategic partnership with EnerGeo Alliance, a global trade association for the geoscience and exploration industries. Through the partnership, EnerGeo Alliance will contribute its technical expertise and global network to advance Libya’s energy development goals, while facilitating U.S.-led exploration in Libya’s evolving energy market.

 

As a strategic partner, EnerGeo Alliance will play a key role in supporting the LEES 2026 summit’s mission to promote investment and development in Libya’s energy and economic sectors. Taking place from January 24-26, the 2026 edition of LEES is officially endorsed by Libya’s Ministry of Oil and Gas and state-owned National Oil Corporation, and will spotlight opportunities in oil, gas and renewables.

Join industry leaders at the Libya Energy & Economic Summit 2026 in Tripoli and explore investment opportunities in one of North Africa’s most dynamic energy markets. LEES 2026 offers a premier platform for partnerships, innovation and sector growth. Visit www.libyasummit.com to secure your participation.

Advocating for the prioritization of energy geoascience to de-risk exploration and inform policy decisions, EnerGeo Alliance has committed to supporting exploration in key markets worldwide. For Libya, this offers a unique opportunity as the country takes significant steps towards re-engaging global investors and accelerating exploration campaigns.

U.S. companies have been at the forefront of these efforts. ConocoPhillips is implementing a bold strategy to increase production at the Waha concession in the Sirte Basin while pursuing new exploration prospects. ExxonMobil is carrying out technical studies for four offshore blocks following its return to the country in 2025. U.S. service providers such as Halliburton and Baker Hughes are also contributing expertise and resources to support the country’s exploration and production goals.

With proven reserves of approximately 48 million barrels, the country represents a highly attractive investment market for U.S. investors. Libya has set clear goals to increase production to two million barrels per day, with a 2025 licensing round - the first major exploration bid round in nearly two decades – supporting this goal. Offering 22 blocks for investment, the licensing round has drawn interest from 40 prospective bidders and will conclude this year.

Taking place as the licensing round closes, LEES 2026 returns as a key platform for discussing new upstream projects and investment strategies. With U.S. energy majors such as ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips advancing exploration projects and international oil companies such as Eni and bp re-engaging in the Libyan market, the summit is well-positioned to highlight Libya’s plans to increase production and expand its natural gas output for domestic and export use.

“EnerGeo Alliance’s global geoscience expertise and commitment to advancing responsible energy exploration align perfectly with LEES’ mission to drive investment and development in Libya’s energy sector. As a partner, together, we aim to strengthen industry collaboration, attract new exploration activity and support Libya’s path toward sustainable energy growth,” states James Chester, CEO, Energy Capital & Power (ECP).

The collaboration underscores both ECP and EnerGeo Alliance’s shared commitment to fostering sustainable growth, strengthening energy security and attracting investment to one of North Africa’s most promising energy markets. The partnership forms part of a broader strategic collaboration between EnerGeo Alliance and ECP that will span ECP’s full portfolio of events through 2026.
