Nembe Creek Shut In

Thursday, February 27, 2014

Shell’s Nembe Creek Trunk oil pipeline in Nigeria’s Niger Delta was shut in once again on February 22. The company shut in the pipeline to repair a leak caused by theft.

The Nembe Creek Trunk oil pipeline pumps Nigeria’s Bonny Light grade of crude oil, taking the oil to the terminal for export.

A Reuters report has Bonny Light exports for April at about 95,000 bpd according to shipping lists; this is roughly 60,000 bpd down from March’s export numbers.
