LAGOS (MarketWatch) — Chevron Nigeria, a unit of ChevronTexaco (CVX), says 23,000 barrels per day of its production are affected by a recent attack on a pipeline belonging to Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria, but explained it has not declared force majeure on its commitments to buyers.
“Our production of approximately 23,000 bpd cannot however be sent through the Shell line to Bonny Terminal,” Chevron said in an e-mail to Dow Jones Newswires Friday.
A pipeline belonging to Shell in the east area of Niger Delta was vandalized by unknown persons last weekend, forcing it to declare a force majeure on 180,000 b/d. Shell had previously shut in 477,000 b/d in the western area of the region.
Another attack on a flowstation Tuesday belonging to Agip Nigeria Oil Company, a unit of ENI Group, in Agbainbiri, Bayelsa State, led to a shut in of 35,000 b/d of crude oil.
The latest incidents in the Niger Delta raised Nigeria’s total shut-in production to 715,000 b/d.

His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
