The Minister of Oil and Gas in the Government of National Unity, Mohamed Aoun issued a decision to form a committee to communicate with the parties that caused the closures at oil sites, and to discuss and debate them in order to find quick solutions to reopen them again without any conditions.

This came after a meeting held by Minister Aoun today, Tuesday, at the office of the Oil and Gas Ministry in Tripoli, with general managers and directors of departments in the ministry devoted to discussing the repercussions of closing production on the oil sector in particular and on the Libyan state in general.

The minister warned of the consequences of stopping oil production, the most important of which is the negative impact on oil reservoirs, equipment and surface facilities, the interruption of gas from electric power plants, and the decline in oil revenues at a time when its prices are witnessing a marked increase in the global market.
