Smallest Gulf Oil Producer Seeks LNG Imports Amid Ample Supply
Bahrain, the smallest oil producer in the Persian Gulf, is seeking liquefied natural gas imports and considering long-term deals as the market appears well supplied, according to the boss of its state energy company. Bapco Energies this month received an LNG cargo after restarting a floating import terminal and is expecting another in June, Chief Executive Officer Mark Thomas said. The company has already awarded a tender for supplies of the fuel in June and July and could seek more cargoes for later in the year, he said, without naming the seller.

Nigeria's Renaissance reports oil spill from illegal pipeline connection
YENAGOA, May 19 (Reuters) - Nigeria's Renaissance Africa Energy Co. Ltd has confirmed an illegal connection on its Okordia-Rumuekpe pipeline at Oshika community in Nigeria's coastal Rivers state caused a spill, the independent oil producer said on Monday. The company was immediately isolating the pipeline and stopping production to minimize potential environmental impact, a spokesperson said in a statement. It has informed government regulators and is coordinating a mandatory joint investigation. This probe, involving government and local community representatives, will determine the cause and impact of the incident, the company said. Monday's oil spill marks the second incident this month on the Okordia-Rumuekpe pipeline and the third across Renaissance's operations. Last Friday, the company, which now owns former Shell Nigeria onshore assets, halted production on a line feeding the Trans Niger oil pipeline, a crucial artery transporting crude from onshore fields to the Bonny export terminal, following an operational incident.
