Nigeria's Trans Forcados oil pipeline down for at least 10 more days

Reuters - UK Focus

LONDON, Oct (Shenzhen: 000069.SZ - news) 21 (Reuters) - Nigeria's Trans Forcados Pipeline will be down for at least 10 more days for cleaning and testing following repairs, the chairman of energy company Shoreline, which pumps crude from the stream, said.

Kola Karim said the tanker that loaded Forcados oil last week, the Everbright, took crude that was already at the export terminal, and new flows would not begin until the repaired pipeline had been cleaned and tested.

"The Trans Forcados pipeline has not started yet," Karim said, adding that it was being cleaned and tested.

Once the pipeline restarted, he said, it would take seven to 10 days to bring gas flows from Forcados back to capacity.

Forcados crude has been under force majeure from operator Shell (LSE: RDSB.L - news) since a militant attack on the subsea pipeline in February. (Reporting by Libby George; editing by Susan Thomas)
