The Al-Tahara oil field located in Libya’s NC4 concession is now online and currently producing 2,500 barrels per day (bpd) and is expected to reach 40,000 bpd once fully producing to potential. The area is operated by Arabian Gulf Oil Company.
The National Oil Corporation (NOC) chairman, Mustafa Sanalla, officially opened the taps during a ceremony. In a speech on this occasion, Sanalla thanked all the employees of Arabian Gulf Oil Company and the SGS company which implemented the project and its contractors as well as the protection force that secured the implementation of the project that has been long delayed due to budget deficits.
Sanalla further explained that this project is very ambitious, and that the NOC gave the permission to the company in October 2020 to use the fast track of development to get to this point in the absence of sufficient budgets for full development.
