Libya’s oil ministry said fields shut down by protesters may reopen within days, potentially allowing the OPEC member to get back to full production.
Oil Minister Mohamed Aoun met members of a recently committee to follow-up on the shutdowns on Sunday. They discussed the closures, which have caused Libya’s daily output to fall by around 500,000 barrels from 1.3 million in the past 10 days.
The committee members reached out to the protestors, and they are now “in the process of finalizing an agreement that would put an end to the recurrent crisis of closures recently.”
