Libya came closer to unifying its petroleum sector while Egypt’s EGPC launched a new bid round. Saudi Arabia replaced its long-serving oil minister Ali al-Naimi with Khalid al-Falih, and ADNOC’s operating companies made several changes to its senior management. Oman’s proposed LNG tax increase tabled in December 2015 moved a step closer to implementation.
