Several state-backed energy companies, including Turkey's TPAO, Hungary's MOL Plc, and Poland's ORLEN Group, will participate in the Libya Energy and Economic Summit (LEES) 2026 from January 24 to 26 in Tripoli. This participation signals renewed confidence in Libya's upstream sector as the country seeks to expand production and attract international investment.

The event, endorsed by key government bodies, will address infrastructure and investment in energy growth. TPAO has deepened its engagement in Libya, signing a memorandum with the National Oil Corporation (NOC) for geological studies.

ORLEN plans to resume exploration in the Murzuq Basin, while MOL aims to diversify its upstream portfolio. The summit will feature technical workshops and discussions on natural gas development, with participation from major international firms like Eni and TotalEnergies, underscoring Libya's strategic energy potential amid ongoing political complexities.
