The Scotsman: Shell clears Nigeria bases
OIL giant Royal Dutch/Shell has evacuated two platforms in Nigeria’s southern region, following clashes between troops and militia fighters.
The evacuation was a precautionary safety measure prompted by clashes near the Soku gas platform and the Ekulama oil pumping station, a company spokesman in Lagos said.
Despite fighting in the area, Shell said there has been no disruption to its production and exports.
Shell accounts for roughly half of Nigeria’s daily exports of 2.5 million barrels.
