DELTA State Government, yesterday told the people of Idjerhe
kingdom in Ethiope West Local Government Area to allow SEPLAT Petroleum
Development Company carry out the laying of its pipelines from the
community to the Oben flow station, Edo State.
The people had demanded that a flow station be constructed in the
area by the company before it could commence the laying of the pipeline
from the oil field in the kingdom.
At a meeting between the state government, the company and leaders of
the Idjerhe kingdom, the state Commissioner for Oil and Gas, Mr. Mofe
Pirah, explained that SEPLAT already had two flow stations in Delta that
were being utilized to full capacity and one other in Oben, a
neighbouring community in Edo State which was below 30% utilization.
