An explosion rocked an oil field operated by Eroton Exploration and Production Limited in Akuku Toru Local Government Area of Rivers State, the National Oil Spills Detection and Response Agency confirmed the incident on Tuesday.

NOSDRA made the confirmation after it received a report of a fire incident at two oil wells operated by the oil firm.

The Director-General of NOSDRA, Mr. Idris Musa, said that the twin incidents occurred at Akaso Wells 14 and 4T Wellheads in Rivers on Monday.

Musa further said following the notification of the incident to the NOSDREA, its officials, the company and oil firm’s Emergency Response Team were immediately alerted and mobilised to the scene.

He said, “The company has mobilized a vendor, which is expected to arrive at the incident location today, October 4, 2022 to extinguish the raging fire from the Wells. The Agency will supervise the activity accordingly.
“An illegal boat was observed at the location, which was suspected to be engaged in oil theft.

“The boat has been completely burnt but the fire on the boat has been extinguished. The two wells are, however, still on fire until the vendor arrives to extinguish it.”

The NOSDREA DG stated that a situation room was created by the company for effective communication with all relevant stakeholders.

Musa explained that NOSDREA subsequently directed the company to give an update on the incident every two hours.

Akuku Toru?

My own LGA? hope no life was lost.

This must be in Kula

After the nordstream pipelines explosions, explosions in oil fields in Nigeria again.

I hope Buhari and his cohorts are not planning something funny.

South South should chase all these oil companies away before they totally destroy their region.

If they didn't donate a well equiped fire service to people in their local government, then they deserve it. Making millions per year, and no fire service nearby. See how Lagos is using Dangote to build roads everywhere. And he also pay tax ooo, Lagos highest tax payer. Develop your host community to enjoy your business, you won't hear, it's like telling you to clear the grasses around your house, so it won't disturb neighbours and you, all the roads Dangote is building, he will reap it, as he is starting new companies in Lagos almost everyday. I hope he concentrates on the refinery sha.

Meanwhile

A foolish Nigerian choice.
1. ATIKU- TO REPLICATE ADAMAWA DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA

2. OBI- TO REPLICATE ANAMBRA DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA.

3. KWANKWASO. TO REPLICATE KANO DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA.

THEY DON'T WANT NIGERIA TO BE LIKE LAGOS, BACKWARDNESS MENTALITY, FOOLISHNESS MENTALITY. YOU EXPECT ATIKU OR OBI TO DO BETTER THAN WHAT THEY DID WHILE THEY WERE YOUNG GOVERNORS OR VP.


We are tired of people trooping to Lagos, let the development spread equally, for a greater nation, we are tired of Lagos congestion.

Ok

Another security contract loading

Imagine National Oil Spills Detection and Response Agency headed by aboki Mr Idris Musa from the barren desert north. These northerners are truly leeches

THERE SHOULD BE HARSHER PUNISHMENT FOR OIL THIEVES IN THIS COUNTRY... YOU CAN'T BE POLLUTING THE ENVIRONMENT, DESTROYING THE CLIMATE AND THE ECONOMY

One of the downsides of being an oil producing state, poor soil for agriculture, contaminated rivers for fishing, indigenous non inclusion in the scheme of things, the list goes on.......



NNPC is headed by who again??

I Sabi Kula wella,blessed people suffering badly

This country don tire me

I laugh each time they talk about oil theft in Nigeria, in reality there is nothing like oil theft in Nigeria presently, the people who coined the word tried to make it look like it is something that is not as serious as it is, when you hear the word theft, it is like to pilfer something undetected which is usually insignificant in quantity to the owner.

The oil illegally stolen presently in Nigeria is more than what NNPC sells daily - is that still theft ?

OK...




The enjoyment belongs to Nigeria and the suffering belongs to Our Oil Crew.

Did you know Krakrama?

I pity south region sometimes, imagine dangerous gases that will be emitted due to this. It’s still local people that will suffer it, their governor should find ways to control these.

The oil is a gift and a CURSE.

Of what use is it to the nation when explosion no rock am.

The explosion for tsunami am ni or better still volcanic an.

Did you know Krakrama?

was it in Krakrama?

i am from Abonnema though.

.

Obviously due to compromised safety standards.
The Oil industry is one very hazardous industry. Ironically in this country, many who know next to nothing about it are feeding fat from it.

God protect your people

Buhari's nepotism and hatred for Christians is out this world.
The head of this agency is also a Northern.
While the people who owns the oil are killing themselves over who should do maiguard on oil pipeline, Northerners are making billions of dollars from their God given resources.
If two brodas fight kill themselves, na total stranger go inherit their property.
Niger Deltans be wise.

Just asking
Close to Krakrama. I know Abonnema.

Stupidity at it peak!

All these children of yesterday in Nairaland.
Do you all know that Lagos is already a mega city in Nigeria in the 60's?

Do you all know that Lagos was once a capital Territory of this country?

Lagos this, Lagos that!

What exactly did Tinubu do in Lagos?

Fashola, Ambode and even Sanwo Olu did nothing....


Most of you all nitwits have not crossed south west states to other state.
Do you even know that Anambra was destroyed during the war?


Even in the early 80's life was still hard for the average Igbo man as the effect of the war.

Come to Anambra and see transformation of the once deserted place. But stupidity will not allow you all to travel out or even study about your region before coming out to showcase how timid you'all are

Wakanda video is attached to it?

Oil spills have devastated Rivers state environment. There is hardly a local government outside Port Harcourt that is not polluted. Oil bunkering has destroyed the once pristine environment of the state.

Anyway, Agriculture is life.

BloomingDale:
South South should chase all these oil companies away before they totally destroy their region.

Don't also forget that these oil companies give employment to indegen of South South.
