Libya’s Amal and As-Sarah oilfields in the east of the country have resumed operations, according to an S&P Global report. Both the Amal and As-Sarah fields contribute to the country’s oil exports.
At “end of August we were able to start up production in C96 [oil block] again with a capacity of up to 50,000 bpd. Production volumes are still depending on availability of external export pipelines and capacity of loading terminals,” a spokesman from Germany’s Wintershall stated in the report.
Wintershall, which operates the NC-96 and NC-97 blocks including the As-Sarah field, has been locked in contract negotiations with the NOC since 2017 over the terms of their agreement.
The Amal field, operated by Harouge Oil Operations, a joint venture of the NOC and PetroCanada, is now producing a raised output of 25,000 bpd.
