利比亚国家石油公司（NOC）周四表示，有人在该国西部的哈马达-扎维亚原油管道上关闭了一个阀门，该管道将哈马达和塔哈拉油田的原油输送出去。
Libya’s National Oil Corporation (NOC) said Thursday that individuals had shut a valve on the Hamada-Zawiya crude oil pipeline in the country’s west, which transports crude from the Hamada and al-Tahara oil fields.
公司在一份声明中说，身份未透露的“个人”进入了由阿拉伯海湾石油公司运营、毗邻扎维亚炼油厂的原油接收站，并关闭了哈马达-扎维亚管道上的隔离阀。
In a statement, the corporation said “individuals,” whose identities were not disclosed, had entered the crude oil reception station operated by Arabian Gulf Oil Company, adjacent to the Zawiya refinery, and closed the isolation valve on the Hamada-Zawiya pipeline.
公司警告称，持续关闭将导致“原油产量损失，对石油收入产生负面影响”。它呼吁保持石油设施不受任何可能干扰运营活动的介入。
The corporation warned that the continued closure would lead to “the loss of quantities of crude oil production, negatively affecting oil revenues.”It called for oil facilities to be kept free from any interference that could disrupt operational activities.
国家石油公司还敦促有关部门“立即介入”，重新打开阀门并确保现场安全。
The NOC also urged the relevant authorities to “intervene immediately” to reopen the valve and secure the site.
声明未指出关闭阀门的责任人，而油田设施警卫一直在要求提高月薪，这是几个行业抗议活动的一部分。
The statement did not identify those responsible for closing the valve, while oil facility guards have been demanding higher monthly wages for some time as part of protests across several sectors.
9月，公司曾表示一群警卫“非法关闭了”哈马达-扎维亚主原油装船管道上的一个阀门。
In September, the corporation said a group of guards had “illegally shut a valve” on the main Hamada-Zawiya oil loading pipeline.
同月，国家石油公司表示，石油设施警卫的武装成员在该国西南部的沙拉拉油田关闭了一处原油输送阀门，导致产量下降。
That same month, the NOC said armed members of the Petroleum Facilities Guard had closed a crude oil transport valve at the Sharara oil field in the country’s southwest, leading to a decline in production.
公司当时估计损失达9500万美元，这个国家约90%的公共预算依赖石油出口。
The corporation put the losses at the time at $95 million in a country that relies on oil exports for about 90% of its public budget.
