Seems a little far fetched. Building a pipeline across Libya seems like a terrible idea given the instability. But Nigeria has had success with its huge refinery it brought online. There’s definitely plenty of demand for the gas, I would think more coastal lng export terminals would be happening.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Saharan_gas_pipeline](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Saharan_gas_pipeline) proposed over 50 years ago and not yet built. A large pipeline needs compressor stations about every 50 miles. That area is not secure. You can “advance it” all you like.
