The petroleum sector has achieved numerous developments during the current period in natural gas production. The plan includes the provision of all kinds of fuel, whether natural gas as the main fuel or essential alternatives such as fuel oil and diesel. The average daily volume of fuel that will be pumped to power plants in the summer is 142 million cubic feet of gas, fuel oil, and diesel. The current growth in natural gas production supports our ability to secure fuel supplies for electricity after the new fields become linked to the production. The strategy of the oil sector relies on achieving self-sufficiency of natural gas by the end of 2018.
