KHARTOUM SHUTS DOWN OIL FLOW Wednesday, 22 May 2013 06:57 | The Government was forced to half its oil production after Khartoum shut down the pipeline.
President Salva Kiir Mayardit said on Tuesday Khartoum unilaterally shut down the oil flow from South Sudan. “Khartoum government has again taken the unilateral decision to stop oil flow following outrageous allegations that South Sudan is supporting rebels against Khartoum regime”, President Kiir added. President Kiir was speaking during during the graduation of the first batch of Emigration Police in Juba. Mawien Makol Arik, spokesman for the foreign ministry, told Reuters on Tuesday that the government cut the output of crude from 200 thousand to 105 thousand barrels per day following Khartoum’s oil flow shutdown. A source in Sudan's oil ministry denied the pipeline was shut. South Sudan resumed its oil production in April. < Prev Next > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
