Saudi shale gas predicted to cut crude burn, while BP heralds new West African LNG production hub

Emerging sources of natural gas are shifting established patterns of supply and demand in Africa and the Middle East. In Saudi Arabia, crude burn – the direct use of crude oil in power plants and industrial facilities, primarily for electricity generation– has long been commonplace. The Kingdom burns significant volumes of oil to meet domestic electricity demand, which hovers around 171 TWh. However, analysis from Rystad Energy shows the upcoming Jafurah shale gas field, set to start production in 2025 and said to be the largest of its kind globally, could dramatically shift this dynamic. Meanwhile, BP has loaded the first cargo from the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim LNG project offshore West Africa.
