Flows of gas from Libya to Italy and production at Libya's Wafa field resumed on Monday after being shut down last week by protesting Petroleum Facilities Guard forces
Flows of gas from Libya to Italy and production at Libya’s Wafa field resumed on Monday after being shut down last week by protesting Petroleum Facilities Guard PFG forces over non-payment of salaries. On Sunday, Libya's interim prime minister Abdulhamid Dbeibah approved a decision to increase salaries for PFG forces, responsible for the security of the country’s oil and gas facilities.
The PFG had closed down production at the Zawiya refinery and the Mellitah complex, along with their ports, and shut down the Green Stream pipeline feeding gas to Italy. They also shut down the El-Feel and Al-Wafa fields, and threatened to gradually terminate operations at Libya’s largest oilfield, Sharara. The Wafa field was closed down on Sunday and reopened on Monday. Wafa produces up to 45,000 bpd. The temporary closure had caused the Libyan dinar to plunge against the U.S.
