Colombia is striving to once again achieve a production rate of 1 million barrels of oil per day, a target it hasn't met since 2015. This goal aims to reestablish the nation's energy sovereignty. Maria Nohemi Arboleda Arango, the Minister of Mines and Energy, has shared that the government is dedicated to this objective, even though current production is already above 730,000 barrels per day.
This significant change in policy aims to strengthen energy security and draw in fresh investment. The increase represents a substantial rise, adding nearly 270,000 barrels daily. The Ministry of Mines and Energy has proposed an agenda to revive oil and gas exploration and production.
