There is a heavy decline in the production of crude oil in the al Sharara oil plant due to the security problems that have occurred in the area recently. According to the Libyan "Wasat" information website, what is considered to be the largest oil rig in Libya, located in the south of the country and operated by the Spanish Repsol with a direct connection to the Zawiya terminal, saw its production drop from 280 to 130 thousand barrels of oil a day. An engineer working on the site revealed that the current production is between 150 and 130 thousand barrels a day because "technicians find it difficult every day to enter some plants after all cars and mobile phones have been stolen ". In a note, the Libyan oil company National Oil Company (Noc) announced on Monday that it would proceed with an internal investigation to clarify the responsibilities of these thefts occurred inside the plant.
