Shell said today it hoped to lift a force majeure on exports of Bonny crude from Nigeria soon after a recent increase in output.
Last month Shell declared force majeure on exports of Bonny crude in July and August after a pipeline leak cut production.
“We don’t have a date for when it will be lifted,” Shell spokeswoman Eurwen Thomas said of the force majeure. “The hope is that it will be in the near future.”
