The Mabrouk oil field in Libya has officially restarted and ramped up operations, hitting initial pumping rates of up to 30,000 barrels per day (bpd) following the successful launch of a new early production unit. This major milestone aligns with the National Oil Corporation's (NOC) broader strategy to rehabilitate the country's energy infrastructure and inject new life into the national economy.


Key Highlights

  • Successful Commissioning: On February 28, 2026, Mabrouk Oil Operations Company officially brought a new early production unit online, allowing the long-stalled field to resume significant output.

  • Aggressive Expansion Plans: Technical teams are not stopping at the initial restart. They are actively working to push the combined total output across both the Jurf and Mabrouk fields to 40,000 bpd within weeks.

  • Official Commendation: NOC Chairman Engineer Masoud Suleman publicly praised the company's Board of Directors and the national workforce, crediting their tireless dedication for this infrastructural victory.
