Libya’s state oil company lifts force majeure on ports, resumes crude exports

Libya’s Tripoli-based National Oil Corporation (NOC) said on Wednesday that four export terminals were being reopened after eastern factions handed them the ports.
Force majeure, a legal waiver on contractual obligations, was lifted on the ports of Ras Lanuf, Es Sider, Zueitina and Hariga, it said in a statement.
“Production and export operations will return to normal levels within the next few hours,” it said.
