Nigeria's Forcados crude exports halted for at least another month

LONDON, July 22 (Reuters) - Nigeria's Forcados crude oil exports are expected to be down for at least another month as pipeline repairs are still ongoing following a militant attack in February, an industry source familiar with the matter said.

SPDC, a local affiliate of Shell (LSE: RDSB.L - news) , exports Forcados crude oil from Nigeria. Shell did not immediately respond with a request for comment.

Nigeria's oil minister Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu said earlier this month that repairs would be completed by the end of July. (Reporting By Julia Payne; Editing by Susan Fenton)
