Friday, 31 December, 2010: ESSEN, Germany, Dec. 30 (UPI) -- German energy company RWE
said it was gearing up to form a joint venture with a Libyan company to explore for hydrocarbons
off the Libyan coast. The Middle East branch of RWE signed an exploration and
production-sharing agreement with the Libyan National Oil Corp. for two blocks in the Gulf of
Sidra. Once the agreement is ratified in Tripoli for eight discoveries in the area, RWE will move to
form a joint venture with the Libyan state-owned company to conduct operations in Libya, the
company said in a statement. The German energy company said it aims to spend $50 million on
exploration and $1.3 billion on field development in the gulf. [UPI]

サイフ氏は今年の世界経済フォーラムには招待されず。
Thursday, 30 December, 2010: Seif al-Islam Gaddafi, regarded as a reformist among the sons of
the Libyan leader, has not been invited to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland this year.
According to the French-language newspaper La Liberté, Seif al-Islam has tried appealing to US
business leaders and Hollywood stars to intercede on his behalf, but Klaus Schwab, the founder of
the WEF, which holds its annual meeting in Davos every January, has remained firm. The paper
says Schwab has told the Libyans several times that none of their decision-makers will be invited
to Davos until relations between Switzerland and Libya have improved. The two countries have
been at odds since the brief detention in Geneva in July 2008 of Hannibal Gaddafi, another son of
Moammar Gaddafi, on charges of mistreating two servants. The Libyans took a number of
measures in retaliation, including holding two Swiss businessmen hostage, and jailing one of
them. [Swiss Info]

Tuesday, 28 December, 2010: TRIPOLI, Libya, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- The Libyan government aims to
position the country as an important energy player while exploring renewable energy at home, a
panel said. Royal Dutch Shell last week announced it was examining a natural gas discovery in
Libya and British supermajor BP is gearing up to explore for oil off the North African coast. Tripoli
aims to boost its power-generation capacity while solidifying its position as a regional energy

Monday, 27 December, 2010: Abu Dhabi's Al Maskari Holding is behind a US$3 billion
(Dh11.01bn) project to build an integrated "energy hub" in Libya and to develop an undersea
cable for exporting electricity to Europe. The project will include solar power and conventional
electricity generation from fuels such as natural gas, and a high-voltage undersea transmission
line from Libya to southern Italy. An agreement for the project was signed in Tripoli on
December 12, said Sirajeldean Elbadri, an official with the chairman's office of the Libyan
general board of privatisation and investment. "Libya is a source for clean energy. We can
export energy to all of Europe. When Russia does not send gas, we hope we can send this
energy to Europe by having cables under the sea from the north of Libya to the south of
Europe," Jamal Ellamushe, the Libyan minister of privatisation and investment, told an
investment forum in Abu Dhabi yesterday. [The National]

Friday, 24 December, 2010: Libya and the UAE have launched a Dh11 billion (US$2.99bn)
joint investment fund to assist the development of both countries, in a deal that could also result
in Emirati companies managing some of Libya's ports and airports. Talks are being held
between the general board for privatisation and investment (GBPI), a government body that
attracts foreign investment into Libya, and the UAE's Ministry of Economy. "It will be investing
in both countries, in the UAE and Libya, and they will have joint investments in projects
together," said a member of the Libyan government close to the talks, who asked not to be

Monday, 27 December, 2010: Libya wants to triple its power generation capacity within a
decade to support what it hopes will be a flood of foreign investment aimed at expanding and
diversifying an economy that is heavily dependent on oil and gas exports. The government's
plan includes increasing installed electrical generation capacity to 20 gigawatts by 2020 from
about 6.2gw at present. As well as supplying the domestic market, Libya is aiming to export
power to Europe. Tripoli has also set a target of supplying 10 per cent of its energy consumption
from renewable sources, especially solar and wind power. That is more ambitious than the
3
UAE's 7 per cent renewable-energy commitment over the same period, but lower than targets
set by some Mediterranean Arab neighbours such as Morocco, Egypt and Lebanon. [The

Tuesday, 21 December, 2010: A few days ago Saif al-Islam, son and heir apparent of Libyan
leader Muammer Gaddafi, issued a curious statement which seemed designed to set the record
straight. “Several press reports have suggested that I’ve been involved in a power struggle with
my brothers behind the scenes . . . There is nothing of the sort,” he said. “I have an excellent
relationship with my family.” He went on to clarify that he and the secretary-general of Libya’s
council of ministers were not “two faces of the same coin” – in other words Saif had nothing to
do with the running of the Libyan government. Nor was he the owner of a media group that has
been the target of a recent security clampdown, but merely a “supporter”, he insisted. And
finally, and also contrary to press reports, Saif had not recently bought an expensive home in
London. “Like any visitor, I stay in hotels when in London, and I can only imagine that such
unsubstantiated rumours are designed to imply profligate or wasteful spending habits.”

Friday, 10 December, 2010: BP has delayed its plans to explore in the deep water off the coast
of Libya until next year after deciding not to use its original drilling rig “for operational
reasons”. The UK oil group said that it was still in the process of ensuring any safety lessons
learnt from its Gulf of Mexico spill had been fully implemented. In July, the company was
preparing to drill from the rig, owned by US company Noble, in the Gulf of Sirte. The
programme in Libya is one of BP’s biggest-ever exploration commitments. BP told the
Financial Times in July that it was ready to start drilling “within a few weeks” in spite of
widespread concerns over its safety and environmental record in the wake of the accident at the
Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20. [Financial Times]

Thursday, 9 December, 2010: The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will keep its
production quotas unchanged as oil gets ready to hit $100 a barrel, Shokri Ghanem, chairman of
Libya’s National Oil Corp., said. OPEC, which is scheduled to gather Dec. 11 in Quito, Ecuador,
will probably agree to a quota rollover and will focus on discussing compliance during this
meeting, Ghanem said today at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport. The price of oil will increase to
$100 “pretty soon,” and once that happens OPEC may alter its production strategy, he said.
“We’ve had output unchanged now since December 2008 and I think if we breach $100 next
year we could see some relaxation in the quota,” Ghanem said before boarding the plane that
will take him to the Ecuadorian capital. [Bloomberg]

Thursday, 9 December, 2010: TRIPOLI — Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi has praised
WikiLeaks for exposing US "hypocrisy" through its diplomacy conducted behind closed doors,
in comments published on Wednesday by state news agency JANA. The whistleblowing
website has "proved that America is not what it has led allies and friends to believe it to be," he
said. Kadhafi said WikiLeaks has revealed that even "US relations with its allies are
hypocritical," through the hundreds of thousands of US diplomatic cables it has made available
on the Internet. "The true face of US diplomacy has been revealed through the confidential
documents," he said, quoted by JANA. The Libyan leader said the website's role was "very
important in revealing the plots which are hatched behind the curtains against persons and
peoples," but warned it could lose credibility if it started "to damage people's image." [AFP]

November, the last of Libya's stockpile of highly enriched uranium -- about 11.5 pounds housed
in seven casks -- was being prepared for transport on board a specially outfitted Russian

Monday, 6 December, 2010: CAIRO (AP) — As it dismantled its nuclear weapons program,

with Washington, leaked U.S. diplomatic memos reveal. The monthlong standoff, which has not
previously been made public, was resolved only after a call from U.S. Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton to Libya's foreign minister, apparently to underline Washington's commitment
to warming relations. After the call, Libya allowed Russia to take away the uranium in
December 2009. But for that month, U.S. officials issued frantic warnings that the 11.5 pounds
(5.2 kilograms) of highly enriched uranium was vulnerable to start leaking or be stolen, since it
