Tripoli-Baniyas Axis Aims for Eastern Mediterranean Energy Hub

The article discusses a regional integration project aimed at developing an energy platform in the Eastern Mediterranean, connecting Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq through the construction of an oil pipeline extending from Iraq to the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea. The goal of the project is to export Iraqi oil with a capacity of 1.5 to 2.5 million barrels per day, making it one of the largest export lines in the region and promoting diversification of Iraq’s maritime routes to reduce reliance on the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf. The project also involves developing the Lebanese port of Tripoli as a center for storing and re-exporting oil, utilizing existing economic zones and storage facilities instead of building a costly new refinery. The report emphasizes that successful implementation depends on political stability in Syria, a stable investment environment in Lebanon, and regional understandings to enable the safe operation of the pipelines. If executed, this project could become one of the most important energy and logistics hubs in the region, reshaping global energy security maps and supply chains.
