REPSOL has been deeply involved in Libya for nearly three decades. How do you see your role evolving in the country over the next decade, particularly as Libya aims to increase its oil production significantly?

Repsol is dedicated to maintaining a lasting and meaningful presence in Libya, a country that has played a key role in our history and growth. Since 1994, we have operated continuously in Libya, demonstrating our strong commitment. However, our connection with the country began much earlier. In 1965, our predecessor, Hispanoil (La Sociedad Hispánica de Petróleos S.A.), was established with a vision to expand oil and gas exploration beyond Spain. By 1966, Hispanoil started its first operations in Libya’s Sirte Basin, beginning a partnership based on cooperation and shared success.

Repsol's ambitious exploration campaign in Libya plays a central role in its strategy. Could you provide an update on the progress of this campaign, particularly the drilling of nine wells planned through November 2025? How are exploration activities progressing in contract blocks NC115 and NC186?

Our exploration campaign is both ambitious and strategically significant, reflecting our commitment to unlocking Libya's energy potential. With a plan to drill nine wells consecutively, we have adopted an intensive approach to ensure the success of this initiative. Given the tight timeframe leading up to the November 2025 deadline, we have made the decision to deploy two drilling rigs to expedite the process. The first rig commenced operations in December 2024, spudding the initial exploration well, while the second rig is scheduled to begin activity in February this year, reinforcing our ability to meet the campaign’s ambitious goals.
