Libya’s National Oil Corporation (NOC) has emphasized that lasting growth in oil production can only be achieved through sustained operational stability across the sector.
NOC Chairman Masoud Suleiman said that stability begins with consistency in day‑to‑day operations, regular maintenance schedules, and the uninterrupted availability of critical inputs such as spare parts, lubricants, and chemical materials. Maintaining adequate inventory levels, he noted, is essential to preventing disruptions that have historically plagued Libya’s energy industry.
In a statement published on his official Facebook page, Suleiman stressed that oil production growth cannot rely on short‑term fixes or emergency measures. Instead, it must be supported by an integrated operational system capable of functioning reliably over time.
He explained that when operational processes are predictable and well‑resourced, oil fields and facilities are better positioned to improve output sustainably, rather than experiencing sharp fluctuations caused by technical failures or supply shortages.
Libya’s oil sector has shown signs of recovery in recent years following prolonged periods of shutdowns, underinvestment, and security challenges. However, officials continue to caution that without strong operational discipline and planning, production gains may remain vulnerable.
The NOC has reiterated that strengthening maintenance regimes, securing supply chains, and ensuring technical readiness are central pillars of its long‑term strategy to stabilize output and attract continued cooperation with international partners.
