Report summary
Jordan's upstream oil and gas sector is very small. Oil and gas is produced from only two fields, Hamzah and Risha. The Hamzah oil fields produced a few hundred barrels per day over the past 20 years, while Risha's gas output peaked at 45 mmcfd in the late 1990s before declining. Redevelopments increased output to around 1200 b/d and 21 mmcfd respectively in 2024. However, Jordan continues to import over 95% of its energy needs. Jordan relies heavily on gas imports from Israel. ...
