Another leak/fire was reported on April 20 on the Kolo Creek–
Rumuekpe trunk line in Bayelsa State, where an excavated
ditch was discovered at the fire point, about 5kms from the
manifold operated by Shell Petroleum Development Company,
SPDC, Vanguard reports.
Meanwhile, the Joint Investigation Visit, JIV, at the Kolo Creek
Manifold spill in Bayelsa State, which occurred on April 15,
2015, has attributed the leak to sabotage.
But a concerned stakeholder from the host community who
pleaded anonymity, insisted that if the cause of the spill was
sabotage as contained in the JIV report then it was a fallout
of negligence by surveillance staff of SPDC.
The facility owned by SPDC, is located along the strategic
Edepie-Otuasega-Imiringi Road linking Ogbia Local
Government Area to mainland Yenagoa.
