Oil companies 'returning to Libya'
Five international oil companies have returned to Libya and are working on getting operations running again, according to a report quoting the head of the ruling interim council's stabilisation team, Aref Ali Nayed.
Saudi Arabia and other OPEC nations including those in West Africa are willing and able to replace any lost Libyan oil as soon as companies ask for it, including crude of the same quality, a Saudi Arabian oil official said.
