Nafusah discusses its contribution to sustaining and increasing Libya’s oil production through digital field management, production optimization, and advanced completion technologies, while outlining expansion plans aligned with national output targets.
As Libya works to strengthen and expand its upstream production capacity, Nafusah is playing an increasingly strategic role in sustaining output and enhancing field performance. In this conversation, the company’s leadership outlines how operations in Contract Area 47 and the North Hamada field are contributing to national production targets and supporting the long-term vision of the National Oil Corporation.
The discussion explores Nafusah’s focus on operational efficiency through digital oil field solutions, real-time monitoring systems, and structured production optimization programs. It also highlights the deployment of advanced technologies such as intelligent completions to improve reservoir management and control water and gas production. Finally, the interview details the company’s forward-looking expansion plans, including new wells, facility upgrades, and gas utilization projects designed to align with Libya’s broader production growth strategy.
Q1: What role does Nafusah play in sustaining and optimizing oil field operations across Libya?
A1: By promoting growth in Contract Area 47 and the North Hamada field, Nafusah plays a crucial part in maintaining Libya's production and progressively raising national output while assisting NOC's long-term strategy. Its accomplishments, including exceeding 10,000 barrels per day aiming to reach the maximum potential, directly contribute to the stability of Libya's economy.
Q2: How does the company improve operational efficiency and production reliability in its assets?
A2: Digital Oil Filed implementation:
• Real Time production monitoring and dashboard.
• Using data analysis to spot decline and water breakthrough.
• Better integration between subsurface (Reservoir) and surface data.
A3: Production optimization:
• Regular well performance reviews and surveillances.
• Optimize choke management.
• Pressure data acquisition to evaluate the wells performance as reservoir management and reservoir characterization.
• Water/ Gas shut off by different techniques (chemical and mechanical shut off).
A4: New technology implementation:
• Intelligent completion technology: it will add value to production with less cost (reduce the cost for new drilling wells) and produce from different reservoirs, also lead to control the water / gas production as reservoir management.
Q3:What expansion or optimization plans does Nafusah have aligned with Libya’s production targets?
A5: Our expansion plans align with Libya’s national targets. Implementing the full-scale development of the field by drilling the required intel wells and expanding the process facilities to accommodate the 50,000 B/D and start the gas utilization part by installing the gas treatment and P/L facilities.
