TotalEnergies has announced the restart of production at the Mabruk oil field in Libya, in which the Company holds an interest of 37.5%. Located onshore, around 130 km south of Sirte, the field had been shut down since 2015.
Construction of a new production unit with a capacity of 25,000 barrels per day was launched in May 2024. This new facility was brought on stream on February 28, 2026, less than two years after the project was launched.
This restart illustrates TotalEnergies’ long-term commitment in Libya, where the Company is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year. Following the extension of the Waha concessions, the project brings low-cost, low-emissions oil production in line with TotalEnergies’ strategy, while contributing to its objective of 3% annual production growth until 2030.

TotalEnergies (48%, operator) has announced the start-up of production from the Lapa South-West project, located in the Santos Basin, approximately 300 kilometers offshore Brazil.
The development will increase production from the Lapa field by 25,000 barrels per day and includes three wells connected to the existing floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) unit at Lapa.
This start-up marks another important milestone for TotalEnergies in Brazil, a key growth country for the Company. By leveraging the available capacity of existing Lapa facilities, the project delivers low-cost, low-emissions oil production in line with TotalEnergies’ strategy, while contributing to its objective of around 3% annual production growth until 2030.
With this project, TotalEnergies continues to ramp up its portfolio in Brazil, following the start-up of Mero-4 in May 2025 and ahead of the start-ups of Atapu-2 and Sépia-2 expected in 2029.
