Sources: Libya's Sharara oilfield shut by pipeline blockade - RTRS

Reuters quoted the industry sources and an engineer on Monday, citing that Libya's largest oilfield - Sharara, has been shut down since Saturday because of a pipeline blockade.

According to a document seen by Reuters, Libya’s state-owned National Oil Corporation (NOC) declared force majeure on loadings of Sharara crude from the Zawiya oil terminal on Sunday.

Sharara's production is key to a revival in Libya's oil output, which surged above 1 million bpd in late June, about four times higher than its level last summer.
