Tripoli, 18 March 2014:

The Ministry of Oil and Gas announced today that oil production up to 17th March was 229,061 bpd and 1.936.9 mcf of gas.

It is worth noting that oil production from the eastern region, Libya's main oil producing area, has been at a standstill since August 2013 due to the armed embargo of the oil terminals by alleged federalists.
