Equatorial Guinea  

Country Analysis Brief ›

  • Equatorial Guinea’s oil production has been declining, but the recent start-up of the Aseng oil and gas-condensate field is expected to revive liquids production in 2012.
  • The Zafiro field has been the backbone of the country’s oil production, but its current output has more than halved since its peak, leaving the country eager to start production from new finds.
  • Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) exports have rapidly increased since a LNG processing facility was built in 2007. A second LNG train is expected to start operation in 2016 to double LNG output.
