    According to Platts News on August 14 Dubai, sources close to Libyan crude oil production said on Tuesday that Libyan crude oil production exceeded the 1 million barrel mark for the first time since early June
    .

    The sources said the largest increase in production came mainly from the Sarala field, which has increased crude oil production to more than
    250,000 barrels per day from 218,000 barrels last week.

    Libya's average crude oil production fell to 670,000 barrels per day in July, the lowest level
    since April 2017, according to a new survey by Standard & Poor's Global Platts Advisory.

    The Sharala field is operated
    by the Libyan national oil company and an international consortium consisting of France's Total, Spain's Repsol, Statoil and Austria's oil and gas groups.
    Over the past few years, the Sarala oil field has been forced to close
    several times due to worker protests and tribal militia attacks on export pipelines.

    The sources said the Sarala field consists of
    three producing areas located in the southwest of the Marzuk Basin.
    Earlier this month, two of the regions resumed operations relatively quickly, rising to around
    200,000 barrels per day.
    However, the third production area, NC-186, presents a more difficult picture of safety
