Press Releases: Illicitly Obtained Oil From Libya 03/09/2014 09:13 PM EDT Illicitly Obtained Oil From Libya Press Statement Jen Psaki Department Spokesperson Washington, DC March 9, 2014 The United States is deeply concerned by reports that a vessel sailing under the name Morning Glory is loading a cargo of illicitly obtained oil at the Libyan port of As-Sidra. This action is counter to law and amounts to theft from the Libyan people. The oil belongs to the Libyan National Oil Company and its joint venture partners. These partners include U.S. companies in the Waha consortium. Any oil sales without authorization from these parties places purchasers at risk of exposure to civil liability, penalties and other possible sanctions in multiple jurisdictions.
