Production at Libya's Sharara Oilfield Up to 85,000 bpd

Production at Libya's Sharara oilfield has risen to about 85,000 barrels per day in a move aimed at supplying the Zawia oil refinery.

Libya's National Oil Corporation (NOC) had declared force majeure on oil exports from the field on August 7 after a blockade by protesters hit production at the 300,000 bpd field.
