Libya
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government what progress has been made on the restoration of oil and gas production in Libya; and when they expect the first exports to begin.
- Answer
-
Mahmoud Jibril, chairman of the Libya National Transitional Council (NTC) executive board, has stated that resumption of oil production in Libya began on 10 September. Subsequently we understand that small amounts of oil have now been exported. The resumption of oil and gas production, albeit at reduced levels, has also been confirmed in statements by energy companies with concessions in Libya. The UK Government have offered to support the NTC in restoring production of oil and gas.
