President Gustavo Petro delivered a message to Ecopetrol (NYSE: EC).
Orlando Velandia, President of Colombia’s National Hydrocarbons Agency (ANH), described the latest gas discovery figures from Ecopetrol (NYSE: EC) and Petrobras (NYSE: PBR) as “good news” for the country.
As Colombia faces a looming gas shortage and the risk of electricity outages, the country’s energy sector is under immense pressure to find solutions. The current situation has a grim outlook, as challenges surrounding both gas and electricity supply intensify.
Colombia is facing a critical energy situation, with warnings from key stakeholders in the hydrocarbons and electricity sectors about a potential natural gas deficit by 2025.
Colombia announced its largest natural gas discovery in three decades, a find that could double the nation’s reserves and sustain its gas supply for up to 40 years.
At the VII Oil and Gas Summit, the consulting firm Jaime Arteaga y Asociados presented the sixth edition of the Petroleum Barometer, a comprehensive study that tracks public perceptions, concerns, and expectations regarding Colombia’s oil and gas sector.
