Libya & Egypt: Refining Relations

Via Stratfor, news that Libyan Prime Minister al-Baghdadi Ali al-Mahmoudi said that Libya is planning to invest $10 billion in Egypt over the next two years including the development of an oil refinery in Alexandria and a natural gas pipeline that will run between Alexandria and Tobruk. The refinery would have a capacity of 250,000 barrels per day.  Just another example of Libya’s continued integration into the regional & global economy.
