Protesters who blockaded oil and gas fields in southern Tunisia pressing demands for jobs and a share of the country`s energy wealth reached an agreement with the government on June 16 to end a sit-in and allow production to restart.
`The blockades have ended. The restart of works at the Nawara project can be started.` an OMV spokesman said.
Nawara had an output of roughly 8.000 barrels of oil equivalent per day until May.
