Libya is expected to load eight cargoes of Sharara crude oil in November, or about 160,000 barrels per day (bpd), according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter. The El Sharara oilfield resumed production earlier this month following a ceasefire with eastern forces that had blockaded most of the country’s oil infrastructure in January. Last week, output at the field reached around 150,000 bpd out of a capacity of about 300,000 bpd. The Aegean Nobility tanker, the first due to load at the Zawia export terminal since the restart, arrived on Oct. 24. (full story)
