☆ Colombia Cano Limon-Covenas oil pipeline bombed
  + stars: | 2023-05-30 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
BOGOTA, May 30 (Reuters) - Colombia's Cano Limon-Covenas pipeline was bombed by unknown actors, operator Cenit said in a statement on Tuesday, prolonging the suspension of pumping crude between oil fields in the country's northeast and the Caribbean coast, where the oil is exported. Colombia's military is working to secure the area, Cenit added. Pumping along the pipeline has been suspended since April 14 due to other attacks. Restarting operations will depend on the military's ability to secure the area where the attacks took place while repairs continue. The Cano Limon-Covenas pipeline, which can transport up to 210,000 barrels of oil per day and runs along Colombia's northern border with Venezuela, was attacked 13 times last year, leading to fires and contamination of the surrounding area.

☆ Colombia's Ecopetrol criticizes new attacks on oil pipeline

Companies Ecopetrol SA FollowCenit Ag FollowBOGOTA, March 22 (Reuters) - Colombia's majority state-owned oil company Ecopetrol (ECO.CN) on Wednesday criticized new attacks against an oil pipeline run by its subsidiary Cenit, saying the attacks harm the country's population and the economy. The Cano Limon-Covenas pipeline has been the target of five attacks by armed groups and two installations of illicit valves so far this year, Ecopetrol said in a statement. Colombia's oil infrastructure is the frequent target of theft and attacks by leftist rebels. Thousands of barrels of oil are stolen from pipelines each day, refined into bootleg fuels and used in making cocaine. In early March, an attack on an oil pipeline led to environmental damage near a refinery in the Colombian city of Barrancabermeja.
