As part of the agreement with AmCham Libya, the event organizer ECP extends an invitation to U.S. companies to attend the Libya Energy & Economic Summit 2021. While oil and gas will play a central role in the conference agenda, the event will include sessions on infrastructure, renewables, power, and other diversified sectors.
Debbie Hirst, Director of AmCham Libya, said: “This conference is an exciting opportunity for the business community in Tripoli and takes place at an important moment in Libya’s re-emergence. The U.S. and its companies can play a vital role in developing and growing the economy, and supporting the Libyan private sector and energy business.

American firms and consortia, including Chevron, ExxonMobil, Hess Corporation, ConocoPhillips, Occidental Petroleum and others, have remained instrumental in developing the nation’s oil and gas fields in the years since.
