LAGOS, April 13 (Reuters) - Shell lifted a force majeure on
exports of Nigeria's Forcados crude oil after the pipeline
transporting it reopened, the company said in a statement on
Monday.
The removal of force majeure followed the reopening of the
Trans Forcados pipeline by operator Heritage Energy Operational
Services Limited, a spokeswoman for the Shell Petroleum
Development Company of Nigeria RDSa.L said on Monday.
The pipeline was shut down on April 4, Shell said in a
previous statement. It declared force majeure on April 6.
Forcados exports were set at roughly 245,000 barrels per day
(bpd) in May and 283,000 bpd in April.
