On December 19th 1992, a Development and Production Sharing Agreement (DPSA) was executed between NOC as First party and Mabruk Oil Operations as Second Party. The DPSA was ratified by the General People’s Committee of the GSPLAJ on March 20th 1993.
The DPSA was amended on November 7th 1998 and was ratified by the General People Committee in 2000. The contract will expire in March 2028.
The second Party is :
• TEP Libye: 75%
• SAGA Petroleum Mabruk: 25%

 Background
Since the date of ratification of the DPSA, Mabruk Oil Operations mainly proceeded with:
• The West Mabruk Development:
It started by a pilot phase in 1993, followed by its extension and consolidation. This phase resulted in a better understanding of the reservoir, which led to the elaboration of a development plan issued in December 1996 (“ West Mabruk evaluation and development plan).
The West Mabruk development plan was based on a peripheral water injection scheme with horizontal producers (77 wells: 42 producers, 28 injectors and 7 water producers) and a process treatment capacity of 25,000 blpd able to both accommodate 20,000 bopd or 80% water cut.
• A long term testing of A1 ( Garian producer) and A4 (Dahra producer) through existing Mabruk facilities
• Deepening of well A68 in Garian North
• Drilling and test of another Garian well: A-97
• 2D & 3D seismic acquisition in 2000 (2D in Garian N and 3D in East Mabruk)
