continuous recovery, despite the major challenges facing the
sector, as production exceeded 1.4 million barrels per day, in
addition to the production of gas and condensates, noting that the
credit for this progress is due to the "proper use of technology"
and a "stable security climate.".

Libyan cities into the oil sector, pointing to the importance of
the role of the private sector in providing oil and gas
services.

petrochemical industry locally and is working according to a
strategic plan to enhance refining capabilities to meet local and
international demand and to implement organizational structural
changes to keep pace with international best practices while
continuing efforts to reduce harmful emissions and achieve the goal
of "zero burning," pointing to the creation of a renewable energy
department within the corporation's administrative structure.
