Tripoli, September 22, 2020 (LANA) - The National Oil Corporation announced the lifting of force majeure, starting Tuesday, from the port of Zueitina, and directing the operator to Zueitina to initiate production arrangements. The Corporation stated in a statement that during the past two days it had carried out a security assessment of Zueitina Port and Zueitina Oil Company fields, indicating the positive assessment, as it concluded that there is a significant improvement in the security situation that allows it to resume production and exports to global markets.
