Libya’s NOC says oil output back to normal after three-field halt

The speed of the restart matters more than the outage itself: Libya's repeated, short-lived field shutdowns have become a recurring risk premium for crude, and a quick return to normal limits the supply-side spillover. The signal here is about operational resilience and the credibility of NOC's guidance, not the volume lost. Whether the no-further-shutdowns expectation holds is the open question, since Libya's output has historically been hostage to politics rather than geology.
