The analysis
A flow-of-funds analysis distinguishing headline crude production from exportable barrels, fuel-import costs and cash ultimately transferred to the Central Bank of Libya.
What the public record establishes
The linked records provide the institutional and numerical frame for this investigation. They support a documented reading, but do not automatically prove every causal claim or allegation. Production is not export volume and export value is not cash received in the same period. The USD 8.5 billion IMF figure relates to 2022 under a broad accounting adjustment and must not be silently applied to another year. Label estimates and reconcile dates.
What remains unanswered
The public-interest test is what the responsible institutions publish next: the underlying decision, transaction-level data, implementation record and a response that can be checked against the evidence in this energy file.
Editorial method: This investigation rebuilds the original calculation from the linked public records, preserves the source period and transaction stage, and separates documented figures from estimates, interpretation and allegations.
