Zallaf

Zallaf is an exploration and production oil and gas entity established in 2013. It is 100% subsidiary company of the NOC to develop fields that have been discovered and appraised but not yet produced, increase oil and gas production, and create sustainable spatial development in production and industrial areas. As Libya holds some of the largest oil reserves in Africa and is currently positioning itself to become a major oil and gas producer again، this represents a great chance for Zallaf to help achieve this NOC National Goal. Our Vision Zallaf will act as NOC's vehicle to develop small and marginal discoveries and fields. NOC also intends for Zallaf to unlock unconventional resources in the Murzuq and Ghadames basins. The company is also expected to develop NOC activities in southern Libya from its base in the city of Sebha. Sebha-based Zallaf offices will be considering early production facility (EPF) schemes to generate early cash flow from these assets while gaining a better understanding of the reservoir performance and addressing development uncertainties and any legacy risks raised by the previous operators. At the same time, it will be working on preparing full field development plans to be submitted to the NOC for approval. Our Mission Zallaf's primary objective is to contribute to the development of Libya's oil and gas infrastructure and increase Libya´s oil and gas production and reserves.
