Summary of Mediterranean Prospects: Outlook for Oil and Gas in Southern and Eastern Mediterranean Countries

Core Content

This report, part of the MEDPRO project, provides an in-depth analysis of the energy prospects for oil and gas in the southern and eastern Mediterranean (MED-11) up to 2030. It outlines the current and future production, demand, and export scenarios, as well as the infrastructure supporting these activities. The report also discusses the Mediterranean's role as a key transit region for hydrocarbons.

Main Points

Oil and Gas Reserves

The MED-11 holds approximately 5% of the world’s proven oil reserves (around 6,145 million tonnes) and 5% of the world’s proven gas reserves (around 8,500 billion cubic meters).
These reserves are primarily located in Libya, Algeria, and Egypt, with Syria and the Levantine Basin also being significant contributors.

Production, Demand, and Exports

MED-11 fossil fuel production is expected to grow from 400 Mtoe in 2009 to 611 Mtoe in 2030, with natural gas production increasing more rapidly than oil.
Oil demand in the MED-11 is projected to rise from 105 Mtoe in 2009 to 168 Mtoe in 2030, with Turkey becoming the largest consumer.
Natural gas demand will grow from 114 Mtoe in 2009 to 239 Mtoe in 2030, with Turkey surpassing Egypt as the top consumer by 2030.
Algeria, Egypt, and Libya are expected to remain net gas exporters, while Egypt is projected to become a net oil importer by 2010.

Energy Mix and Power Generation

Hydrocarbons will continue to dominate the energy mix in the MED-11, accounting for 90% of primary energy in 2030 (down from 95% in 2009).
Natural gas is expected to overtake oil as the dominant fuel in the MED-11 by 2030, making up 38% of the energy demand.
Renewable energy (including hydro) is projected to grow significantly, reaching 8–10% of the energy mix by 2030.
Power generation in the MED-11 is expected to increase from 556 TWh in 2009 to 1,501 TWh in 2030, with gas-fired power plants and renewable sources being the main contributors.

Infrastructure Development

The MED-11 has substantial gas and oil infrastructure, including pipelines and LNG terminals.
Algeria is developing LNG and pipeline export capacities, with planned projects enhancing its role as a major exporter.
Egypt has LNG export infrastructure and is investing in gas pipelines to increase its export potential.
Libya is expanding its gas export infrastructure, with potential for increased production and export volumes.
Turkey is a major transit hub, with existing and planned pipelines (e.g., Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) and Baku-Tbilisi-Erzurum) facilitating oil and gas transport across the region.

Energy Transit Role

The Mediterranean region is becoming a critical transit corridor for oil and gas, with Turkey playing a central role.
Algeria and Egypt are also key players in regional transit, especially for West African gas and Middle Eastern oil.
The Arab Gas Pipeline and the SUMED pipeline are important for gas and oil transportation in the region.

Key Information

The MEDPRO Energy Reference Scenario is based on official plans, projects, and data from national sources and international organizations.
Energy dependency in the MED-11 is expected to rise, driven by increasing domestic demand.
Nuclear energy is expected to play a minor role, with planned plants in Turkey and Egypt, though delays may occur due to Fukushima-related concerns.
Energy cooperation between producer and consumer countries is anticipated, especially as export potential increases.
The Mediterranean will continue to be a strategic region for global energy trade, particularly due to its geographic position and infrastructure development.

Conclusion

The report highlights the growing importance of the Mediterranean in the global energy landscape, with Algeria, Egypt, and Libya leading in production and export, and Turkey as a key transit hub. The MED-11 is expected to significantly expand its energy infrastructure and export capacity, contributing to regional and global energy security. Despite the increasing role of renewables, hydrocarbons will remain the primary energy source for the region until 2030.
