By Hadi Fornaji.

Tripoli, 1 July 2013:

Libya’s oil production, which the National Oil Company admitted last month is now running below a . . .[restrict]million barrels a day, suffered further disruptions today  when workers at two fields operated by the Zuetina oil company went on strike demanding management changes.

At its post-revolution high, Libya oil and gas output was running at the equivalent of 1.6 million barrels a day and government sources were speaking of passing the two million figure early next year

Last week it was reported that production from Mellitah Oil’s Elephant (El-Fil) field had stopped completely and that Italian partner ENI had pulled out its staff.  At one point this field had been roducing around 130,000 barrels a day. Disputes have also stopped output in the Akakus Oil’s El-Shahara field, near Obari, in which Spain’s Repsol is a partner.

The grounds for the series of disputes that have plagued both oil field and terminal operations in recent months, range from discontent with management, demands for higher wages and calls that more local workers be found jobs, particularly inside refineries. [/restrict]
