Export Situation Unclear for US Firms Operating in Libya

摘要

Hess and Occidental Petroleum said on Monday they are uncertain of the status of their Libya oil exports, while another US-based producer in the country, Cono-coPhillips, said it has stopped exporting oil from the strife-torn North African nation. The US announced sanctions in late February aimed at freezing the assets of Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi and senior officials in his regime.
