The National Oil Corporation clarified about what was published on the official page of the General Electricity Company regarding the lack of gas supplies to the Zueitina and Sarir stations, which was the reason for the loss of 280 megabytes. Scheduled maintenance during the past years due to lack of funding and security conditions, as they mentioned. The Corporation affirmed its keenness to provide the available supplies of gas to consumers, despite what it suffers from not carrying out overhauls and scheduled maintenance work during the past years due to lack of funding and security conditions.

It said that the cessation of the second phase of Al-Faragh field production, with the continuation of the first phase without interruption, was for less than half a day, and part of the lost gas was compensated by the operation of the Sahel field. These interruptions are expected due to the nature of the above-mentioned operations and reasons and the correct treatment should be coordinated with sufficient time with the competent authorities to provide the alternative fuel needed to generate electricity in a backup for use when needed.
