Libya’s National Oil Corporation Chairman Farhat Bengdara has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Norwegian company Equinor. This memorandum aims to study and evaluate the oil and gas potential in the Libyan maritime region.
The MoU also includes plans to train young national personnel in the oil and gas sector.
