Sharara and El Feel both
stopped pumping after an armed group blocked the pipeline from

In addition to 270,000 - bpd
Sharara, El Feel — which pumped over 26,000 bpd in April — has also
stopped production, a source from the Petroleum Facilities Guard that controls security at the field told Bloomberg.
