Shell Warns Customers of Delays to Nigerian Crude Oil Exports

London, Jan. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Royal Dutch/Shell Group, the
biggest foreign oil producer in Nigeria, said exports from its
Forcados oil terminal in Nigeria could be delayed by civil unrest.

Shell on Dec. 30 invoked a contractual clause -- known as
force majeure -- that allows it to miss deliveries because of
circumstances beyond its control, said Cerris Tavinor, a Shell
spokeswoman. The clause will remain until the end of January, she
said, without specifying the nature of the disruption.

Oil output in Nigeria from Shell and other companies has been
dogged by violence in the Niger delta, where local communities are
demanding a bigger share of the country's oil wealth.

Shell's Forcados terminal typically exports 400,000 barrels
of oil a day.
