Abstract

Libyan oil and gas companies (LOGCs) are facing many kinds of risks and challenges, which make execution of projects increasingly complex. Identification of critical success factors (CSFs) are vital to Libyan oil and gas projects success, as it allows companies to focus their efforts on these factors to ensure success. The main objective of this research is to identify the success factors, which are important for Libyan oil and gas projects success. From the literature review, thirty factors were found to be critical. To seek the opinion of clients, consultants and contractors in the Libyan oil and gas sector on the critical success factors, a questionnaire survey was conducted. The top ten critical success factors were selected based on their individual relative importance index. In addition to that, five semi-structured interviews were conducted with local experts in oil and gas projects in order to add other CSFs. These experts added ten more CSFs, so the total CSF’s developed and identified was twenty-one factors. These critical success factors were classified into five groups of factors, which are critical inputs to achieve oil and gas projects success in Libya.
