Libya’s NOC Reports Sharp Decline in Oil Production

Libya’s NOC Reports Sharp Decline in Oil Production
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The National Oil Corporation (NOC) in Libya has reported a significant decrease in oil production over the past three days. According to an official statement from the NOC, production fell sharply from 985,000 barrels on August 26 to 591,000 barrels by August 28, resulting in financial losses exceeding $120 million.

The statement highlighted that the Waha Oil Company was among the most affected, with its daily production dropping from 265,000 barrels to much lower levels following shutdowns. Other companies like Akakus and Sirte also experienced disruptions.

This sudden decline resulted in a loss of 1,504,733 barrels of oil over just three days, impacting Libya’s financial stability and its capacity to meet international oil demands.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
