Libya's National Oil Corporation (NOC) is restarting crude exports from four ports after lifting a force majeure declared at the start of July.

The Tripoli-based company said the terminals at Ras Lanuf, Es Sider, Hariga and Zuetina were handed back to it by the Libyan National Army (LNA) on Wednesday morning.

Production and export operations will return to normal levels within the next few hours, it added.
