The National Oil Corporation was able to control the eruption of well (C3/1) in the Atshan field, which belongs to the “Zallaf Libya” Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Company, as the ongoing drilling and testing operations (via the Fayyad Barqan 1 drilling rig) recorded the eruption of the well and its loss of control, and the complete shutdown of all operations and the drilling rig.

According to what the institution reported on its official Facebook page, the accident, which occurred in the early hours of Tuesday morning, was brought under control with the efforts and expertise of national engineers and technicians, in a record time of no more than 24 hours, without any damage or injuries among workers.

Immediately after the accident, the concerned departments of the Corporation and Zallaf Libya Company formed an emergency room to provide support and communicate with the team present in the field. A specialized team from the company also headed to the field to help provide everything required to control the well.

The Chairman and members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation expressed their sincere thanks and gratitude to the relevant departments in the Corporation, to Zalaf Company, Fayyad Burgan Company, and all the companies present in the field and the teams that contributed to completing the work of controlling the well’s eruption.
