Ballsh (Albanian: Ballsh or Ballshi) is the capital city of the southern Albanian District of Mallakastėr. The city's surrounding fields are rich in crude petroleum and are dotted by a series of oil wells established during the communist dictatorship. Only a fraction of these wells are operating today, but the city includes a working refinery, and outputs of naphthas are significant.
