Tripoli, 5 May 2026 (Lana)—Mellitah Oil & Gas Company announced strong production results at the Abu Attifel field following a series of maintenance activities carried out by its specialized technical teams, including waterlock isolation and re-perforation, which helped improve production efficiency and strengthen overall operational performance.

These activities included well A71, where operational data showed a marked improvement in production performance after the maintenance work; specifically, oil production jumped from 1,864 to 2,607 barrels per day, gas production rose from 4,261 to 5,582 million cubic feet per day, and wellhead pressure climbed significantly to 1,000 PSI, indicating that the well has returned to full production capacity.

In a related development, technical teams successfully restarted the KK-1 well, which had been completely shut down, following a successful scale removal operation, and the well is now producing 1,187 barrels of oil and 2.715 million cubic feet of gas per day, with water-free and impurity-free production.

These achievements are part of the NOC’s strategic plans to boost production levels and maximize the country’s resources. They also highlight the effectiveness of national teams in delivering maintenance and optimization programs to ensure the long-term sustainability of operations and supporting the sector’s ambitious targets.
