Overview
Equatorial Guinea, a key oil and gas producer in sub-Saharan Africa, is advancing its energy sector through upcoming licensing rounds, strategic gas hub developments, and efforts to rehabilitate its electricity network while targeting emissions reductions.
Get more details on the table of contents and data files, as well as the list of graphs and tables by browsing the tabs below.
Highlights
- Equatorial Guinea announced a new oil and gas licensing round, scheduled in April 2026.
- GEPetrol, the national oil company, plans to redevelop the Zafiro oil field following ExxonMobil's departure and the transfer of assets.
- ConocoPhillips and Chevron are the main gas producers.
- Crude oil production has decreased by 69% since 2014.
- Gas production has experienced a significant recovery since 2019-2020.
- Final energy demand fluctuates a lot because of the industrial sector, which represents the bulk of this consumption.
- Chevron approved a final investment decision for the Aseng Gas Monetisation project in April 2026.
- Construction of the 200-MW Sendje hydropower plant resumed in 2025 after several years of deadlock.
Energy & Climate Policy Framework
Equatorial Guinea is a small country consisting of two main parts: the island of Bioko, in the Gulf of Guinea, which is where the country's capital Malabo is located; and a mainland region that is bordered by Cameroon to the north and by Gabon to the south and east.
The Ministry of Industry and Energy oversees the development and implementation of energy policies.
Energy Companies
Electricity:
Segesa Generación directly or indirectly owns 100% of the capacity.
Energy Supply & Demand
Gas:
Marketed gas production recovered to 7.7 bcm in 2024, following a 12% decline the previous year (7.3 bcm). This fluctuation follows a period of robust growth between 2020 and 2022 (+16%/year), when output peaked at 8.3 bcm, returning to levels last seen in 2017. Production declined rapidly decline between 2017 and 2020 (-9%/year).
Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
The pipeline of projects for new power generation capacity under construction amounts to 0.3 GW.
