Libya's National Oil Company has warned that any bid to tamper with the sector could escalate unrest in the conflict-hit country, after the parliamentary speaker called for a halt to production.

In a statement issued late Saturday, NOC said it "is concerned by recent calls for the shutdown of national oil production".

"Any deliberate disruption of oil sector operations will severely impact national revenue streams, potentially render NOC in contravention of contractual obligations, and create further division in the country."
