Forcados oil terminal ramps up after brief pipeline shutdown

Nigeria’s Forcados terminal is ramping up after a temporary shutdown on the Trans Forcados Pipeline, Reuters reports.

“There was low injection into the Forcados terminal on March 27 as a result of a temporary shutdown of the Trans Forcados Pipeline, operated by Heritage,” an SPDC spokesman said in a statement.

“The pipeline was restored on April 2 and production into the terminal is ramping up” the statement added. Traders said Forcados crude oil loadings were delayed by 2-3 days as a result.
