No return to abandoned Nigerian oilfields: source
Wed Apr 5, 2006 5:54 AM ET
 

LAGOS (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L: Quote, Profile, Research) and other oil companies have no plans to return their staff to abandoned oilfields in the Niger Delta until there is a truce with militants, industry sources said on Wednesday.

They added that a meeting between the Nigerian government and delta groups scheduled for later on Wednesday is unlikely to achieve anything because key players from the militant side will be absent.
