Libya Restores Oil Output at Sharara
The National Oil Corporation of Libya announced the resumption of oil exports from the Sharara field after shutting it down for five days due to protests by personnel from the Petroleum Facilities Guard demanding increased salaries. The valve number 7 on the Sharara-Zawia pipeline was opened, allowing the flow of crude oil to gradually return to its normal levels. The shutdown caused losses estimated at approximately $95 million and led to disruptions in refining operations at Zawia refinery, where a refining unit was temporarily halted before the valve was reopened. Technical teams are continuing efforts to ensure the stability of export and refining operations, with warnings that targeting oil infrastructure could lead to punitive measures under Security Council resolutions.
