Libya Ranks 6th in Africa for Oil Consumption

Libya Ranks 6th in Africa for Oil Consumption
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Libya has secured the sixth position in Africa and ranks 49th globally among the world’s largest oil-consuming nations, with a daily consumption of 230,000 barrels, according to Global Firepower, which published its 2025 rankings of countries with the highest oil consumption worldwide.

Egypt topped the list as Africa’s largest oil consumer, with a daily demand of 851,000 barrels, followed by South Africa, Nigeria, Algeria, and Morocco, with Libya ranking sixth. These nations have significant urban centers and high transportation demands, driving increased oil consumption.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
