The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Libya’s National Oil Corporation (NOC), Mustafa Sanalla, recently met with the General Manager of Schlumberger Libya, Mustafa Ajaj, regarding the national oil company’s outstanding debt obligations.   

According to the NOC, Libya’s Prime Minister, H.E. Abdulhamid M. A. Al Dabiba, will issue an allocated budget to the national oil company; upon receiving the funds, the NOC will settle its debts with Schlumberger.  

For its part, the leading oilfield services provider commended the NOC for its financial integrity and reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable development projects in the country, including a 100-well contract recently awarded by Libya’s Arabian Gulf Oil Company and the installation of electric submersible pumps on 24 wells for Sirte Oil Company. In addition, Schlumberger is set to open a facility at Bright Star University in Brega this week.
