Libya produces roughly 2% of the world's oil.
According to the CIA world factbook 2009 stats, Libya produces 1,790,000 bbl /day (barrels per day) making Libya the #18 oil producing country in the world. This is 2.49% of the 71,959,000 bbl/day of oil produced by the top 20 oil producing countries and 2.05% of the 87,125,145 bbl/day of oil produced by the top 100 oil producing countries.
Libya is a developed country and not a developing country. It is considered as the most developed country in Africa because of the oil that is produced. So many countries in the world depend on Libyan oil for example America gets about 90,000 barrels of oil per day and uses about 20 million dollars per year. Libya is also an OPEC member (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries). This organization has been widely criticized because most oil-rich countries the determine the prices and oil production. Libya is also ranked number 5 most developed country in Africa on 2007 and number 81 globally because of its oil sector.
Venezuela is one of the largest producers and exporters of oil and ranked as the 3rd in the year 2013. They produce about 2.5 million barrels of oil per day.
