Syrian Minister of Oil and Mineral Resources Mohamed Bashir confirmed that the ministry is working to increase oil and gas production and improve electricity and water services, with the aim of supporting economic development and bridging the gap between supply and demand. He explained that Syria needs about 24 million cubic meters of gas daily for electricity generation and faces challenges such as lack of data, difficulties in securing crude oil and spare parts. He also noted that the current refining capacity of the refineries is around 150,000 barrels per day, while the gap between production and needs reaches approximately 200,000 barrels. The ministry is working on rehabilitating the Banias refinery and expanding refining capacities in various regions, in addition to negotiating with global companies to explore oil and gas, with expectations of achieving self-sufficiency in oil by 2028. Additionally, he announced negotiations regarding the replacement of the Kirkuk–Baniyas pipeline and the reemployment of furloughed workers. The focus is also on digital transformation, infrastructure management for importing electric vehicles, addressing pollution, and reducing primitive burning practices.
