National Oil Corp. of Libya expected production from El-Feel (Elephant) oil field to resume at 50,000 b/d 2 days after its lifting of force majeure and to 72,000 3 days later.
The field has been shut in since Feb. 23 because of pay and benefit demands by a local group guarding surface facilities (OGJ Online, Feb. 26, 2018).
El-Feel is among Libyan fields recently hampered by disputes among rival militant groups, which also closed ports.
On July 11, NOC lifted force majeure on ports Ras Lanuf, Es Sider, Hariga, and Zueitina.
