Force majeure from all fields and oil ports of Libya is removed. This was stated by the new head of the country’s National Oil Corporation (NOC), Farhat Bengdara, appointed by the government in Tripoli.

„The National Oil Corporation announces the cancellation of force majeure and the complete cessation of the closure of all Libyan fields and ports, from today, July 15,” Bengdara said after negotiations with influential representatives of the tribes of the east of Libya.

The head of the NOC also said that he would work on returning oil production to its previous volumes, up to reaching its highest levels. It is noted that the average level of oil production in Libya in 2021 amounted to 1.2 million barrels per day.
