What is the future of the oil and gas sector in Lebanon? Following
the recent discovery of these valuable resources in the southern
Mediterranean, including in the Cypriot and Israeli offshore
reserves, the possibility of Lebanon also becoming a
petroleum-producing country has been raised. This collection of
essays addresses the major challenges and opportunities that
accompany the country's hope to join the petroleum club. Covering
the key policy issues - from Lebanon's susceptibility to the oil
curse, to the environmental risks of production - this book brings
together expert analysis to offer answers at the institutional
level. Of central importance, the contributors argue, is that for
Lebanon to benefit from the discovery of petroleum, it must first
reform its institutions with the full support of the voting public
and civil society. Combining rigorous quantitative and qualitative
research, the Lebanese Center for Policy Studies has produced here
an essential book that puts petroleum in Lebanon, and the important
questions that come with it, within a global perspective.
