Energy — oil & gas
National crude output averaged 63,050 barrels a day in 2025, up 43 percent on 2024, driven by Eni's Baleine field. Baleine produces over 57,000 barrels a day and 78 million cubic feet of gas a day. Phase 3 reached FID in May 2026 with a new FPSO, targeting 150,000 barrels a day; all gas goes to the domestic market. Calao South, found in February 2026, holds up to 5 Tcf of gas and 450 million barrels of condensate. Petrobras signed eight offshore contracts in September 2026, and Murphy confirmed oil pay at Bubale West-1X. PETROCI became sole operator of block CI-26 and the mature Espoir field in July 2026. The government targets 200,000 barrels a day by 2028.
