PGNiG Operations in Libya

PGNiG bought acreage in two blocks in the Murzuq Basin in 2007 but was forced to suspend operations in February 2011 when the civil war broke out.

When the company made the decision to explore in the country in late 2012, Vice President Jacek Gutowski underlined the importance of Libyan gas to Poland, stating that "we are looking for other opportunities for gas supply to our country" and that "it was not a question of whether we would come back to Libya but how and when." The company said it was planning to drill four exploration wells in Libya in 2013 and to continue with its seismic work.
