LIbya's NOC ... looking to charter a tanker

Libya's NOC looks to load 1st crude cargo at Ras Lanuf port since end-2014

, September 4, 2016

Libya's state National Oil Corp is looking to charter a tanker to load 80,000 tonnes of crude oil from its major Ras Lanuf terminal that has been shut since December 2014, sources familiar with the matter said.
 
A shipping source said NOC was looking to load on September 18-20. A senior Libyan oil official said that the tanker would load from storage.
 
Ras Lanuf along with neighbouring Es Sider port have been shut by a blockade by Libya's Petroleum Facilities Guard. A deal was recently brokered to empty storage tanks for another blocked export terminal called Zueitina. -- Reuters
