U.S. allows oil firm to survey forcibly abandoned Libya assets

Petroleum News Alaska Staff

The Clinton administration is allowing Occidental Petroleum Corp. to send representatives to survey oil-production facilities abandoned in Libya because of U.S. sanctions, industry sources said in mid-September.

It will be the first such visit by an American company with assets in Libya since sanctions were imposed in 1986. Among other sanctions, the United States bars most trade with Libya.
