Description

We expect Libya's GDP growth to remain robust at 8.2% this year, before slowing down to 3.2% in 2027 and 3.0% in 2028. This is a downward revision from our previous forecast of 9.4% in 2026 and 5.8% in 2027. The most immediate energy impact of the US–Israel war with Iran is the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which around 20 mbpd of oil normally flows. We expect Brent crude oil prices to rise and remain high in the short term due to uncertainty about oil supply.
