Libya halts Elephant Field output
The National Oil Corporation of Libya announced the complete suspension of production at the Elephant Field and a partial halt of operations at the Wafa Field following the storming of the Mellitah Industrial Complex for Oil and Gas by protesters. This complex is the main source of gas supplies feeding the coastal line. As a result, power generation units have been shut down due to a severe shortage of gas and fuel supplies, with warnings that ongoing circumstances could lead to widespread power outages and possibly a nationwide blackout if urgent intervention is not taken. The corporation urged the relevant authorities to secure the oil facilities and resume operations to ensure the stability of the electrical grid, emphasizing that the situation could escalate into an emergency if the crisis persists without resolution. The Government of National Unity in Libya also confirmed that it has succeeded in securing the Mellitah Complex and resuming the gas flow to power plants.
