libya’s Mellitah crude exports on force majeure on El feel closure

摘要

London-Crude loadings from Libya’s Mellitah port are on force majeure due to the closure of the El Feel oil field, a spokesman at state-owned National Oil Corporation said Monday. The spokesman said force majeure was declared Sunday evening after Libya’s vulnerable El Feel, or Elephant, oil field was shut down again December 5 due to an “unlawful valve closure” on an export pipeline causing a loss of 73,000 b/d.
