Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Senior employees of Nigeria's Department of Petroleum Resources ended a 2-day strike on 22 December. DPR Public Affairs Manager Belema Osibodu confirmed to the Consulate on 23 December the strike has been suspended following a meeting between management and DPR workers. The workers, members of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN), were striking to protest non-implementation of a collective bargaining agreement. DPR, the regulatory agency which oversees Nigeria's energy sector, handles loading of oil at terminals, and recording and clearing tankers lifting oil. No Production Impact -------------------- 2. Contrary to some Nigerian press reports, Post has not been able to confirm a production impact. Both Exxon Mobil General Manager of External Affairs Udom Inoyo and Shell Head of Media and Communications Bisi Ojediran confirmed that operations were not affected, as DPR management stepped in to take over routine operations during this two-day period.
