Mustafa Sanalla

Mustafa Sanalla (مصطفى صنع الله) has served as the chairman of the National Oil Corporation (NOC), Libya's national oil company, since May 2014. After acquiring a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Tripoli in 1985 Sanalla joined Ras Lanuf Oil and Gas Processing Company, a subsidiary of the NOC which operates a refinery in Ras Lanuf, Libya. Sanalla was subsequently promoted several times until he was appointed as the NOC chairman in 2014.[1][2]

As chairman, Sanalla has sought to maintain the independence of the NOC and increase Libya's oil production, which has been repeatedly disrupted since the outbreak of the 2011 civil war.[3] Sanalla is also engaged in efforts to attract international investment to Libya's oil and gas sector.[4]
