Libyan oil guards allow work to resume at two main ports

Libya’s Petroleum Facility Guards (PFG) have ended their brief blockade of the ports of Ras Lanuf and Es Sider, allowing oil exports to resume there, al-Waha Oil Co said on Monday.

The PFG, a force made up of local groups around Libya tasked with protecting oil facilities, closed down the ports in what it said was a dispute over pay.

An oil engineer at Ras Lanuf said normal work had resumed.
