ABUJA, Nigeria, March 4 (UPI) — Supermajor Shell said it was calling on the Nigerian government to do more to help ensure its operations are safe from oil bandits.
Shell last year declared force majeure on Bonny Light crude, the Nigerian blend, because of “incessant crude theft and illegal bunkering” on a pipeline the Nembe Creek trunk line in southern Nigerian.
Shell Managing Director Mutiu Sunmonu was quoted by The Guardian (Nigeria) as saying his company might shut down some operations there because of ongoing pilfering. The newspaper reports Shell says saboteurs are stealing about 60,000 barrels of crude oil per day from the region.
A task force set up to tackle oil theft needs to take matters in southern Nigeria more seriously, said Sunmonu.
“Let’s not underestimate the cleverness of the people who are perpetrating this act,” he was quoted as saying. “I have always said with a 3,700-mile network of flow-line and pipeline, even if you throw the entire Nigerian army into the creeks, it is not going to solve the problem.”
Nigeria is the No. 7 oil producer among the 12-member Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. OPEC said Nigerian oil production fell last year from its 2.1 million barrel-per-day average for 2011.

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.
