TotalEnergies to restart production from Mabruk onshore Libya

TotalEnergies has restarted production at the Mabruk oil field onshore Libya, located in concession C17, around 130 km south of Sirte

This start-up comes after 16 years, since production from the field stopped in 2015.

The construction of a new production unit with a capacity of 25,000 barrels per day was launched in May 2024. Start-up of this new facility occurred on February 28, 2026, less than two years after the project was launched.

“This restart illustrates our long-term commitment in Libya, as we celebrate TotalEnergies’ 70th anniversary in the country this year,” said Julien Pouget, Middle East and North Africa Director for TotalEnergies’ Exploration & Production business. “This project, which follows TotalEnergies’ recent announcements regarding the extension of the Waha concessions, brings low-cost, low-emissions oil production in line with the Company’s strategy, and contributes to our objective of 3% annual production growth per year until 2030.”

TotalEnergies holds an interest of 37.5% at the Mabruk. 

TotalEnergies has also signed a 34-year extension agreement on the Waha Concessions onshore Libya. As the concessions continue to produce around 370,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), TotalEnergies plans to kickstart additional phased investments that will advance the development of the North Gialo field. This will unlock 100,000 boe/d of boosted production.
