ROYAL Dutch Shell Plc, Europe’s largest oil company, shut natural gas pumping at one of its Nigerian fields following a fire on a pipeline in the south of the country.
Nigerian unit Shell Petroleum Development Co reported the fire on the Utorogu-Ughelli gas condensate pipeline in the Delta state on Friday, Alexandra Wright, a London-based company spokeswoman, said. Shell had to declare force majeure on deliveries to the nation’s gas pipeline network, she said.
“The cause of the fire is not immediately known,” Wright said by telephone. “The helicopter over-flight confirmed the fire” around Otor-Edo in the Ughelli South Local government area.
Nigeria’s Vanguard newspaper said that the fire broke out because of an attempt to tap the line to siphon off the fuel. Wright said the helicopter inspection spotted abandoned hoses and drums, without elaborating on the cause of the fire, Bloomberg News said.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. 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.
