Libyan oil storage hit in new fighting at Ras Lanuf - Reuters News
|An armed group opposed to Libya's self-styled national army attacked key oil port terminals on Sunday "significantly" damaging an oil storage tank at the Ras Lanuf oil port in Libya’s 'oil crescent' region.
Ras Lanuf's storage tank No. 2 was hit and held 200,000 barrels of crude at the time, a firefighting official said, according to Reuters News.
However, the news has failed to put a bid under oil prices.
